Reeded Glass Collections
Our Reeded Glass Vinyl collection offers two distinct styles to suit your style: Clear and Frost. The Clear series features a sleek reeded pattern that distorts the view while still allowing light to pass through, creating privacy without sacrificing openness. The Frost series, on the other hand, combines the classic look of frosted glass with a reeded appearance, offering enhanced privacy and a modern aesthetic. Both collections come in a range of reed widths, from 6mm to 15mm, giving you the flexibility to choose a style that perfectly complements your space.

Easy application
Installed in minutes
Prepare the Surface
Clean the glass thoroughly using a surface cleaner or isopropyl alcohol to remove dust, dirt, and grease. Ensure the surface is smooth and free from damage. Any imperfections can show through the vinyl.
Measure and Cut
Measure the area you’re covering and cut the vinyl to size, leaving a 10–20mm excess around the edges for easier alignment.
Apply Soapy Water
Spray the glass surface evenly with a soapy water solution made by mixing a few drops of dish soap with water in a spray bottle. This will make it easier to reposition the vinyl during application.
Position and Apply the Vinyl
Peel back a small section of the release liner to expose the adhesive and spray it lightly with your soapy water solution. Gradually continue this process, ensuring the entire adhesive side is evenly covered. Once prepared, flip the vinyl onto the glass surface and use a squeegee to gently press out the water, allowing the adhesive to bond securely to the glass.
Trim and Final Touches
Trim the edges with a sharp utility knife for a clean finish.
