Anyone used this on windows .. will it peel off paint? I'm looking to use it with a window wedge (without screwing in).

I use it to hold on hurricane protection sheets over my windows. I have used them for 6 years and found no damage from them on good paint. Ifd you already have peeling paint on your windows it might remove the paint when they are removed.

I haven't taken mine off but I think it will leave residue. If stuck to car window would be easy to clean off.

I have it on my wall but I never thought about putting it on a window... That's a good idea actually! I think it would look nice but would it stick?? Not sure.. Would humidity affect it?? I hope it works for you.

Sound deadening paint ? Is this something like inside your wheel wells or on the inside of a body panel ? I would think it would stick as long as you scuff up the surface and make sure it is well cleaned. I have used this on many different types of surface's from wood to plastic to metal. It's all in the surface prep. Scuffed and Clean.

I cut it for those very kind of windows and they work very well. I did put a dab of a waterproof glue stick in each corner, but I don't know if that made any difference. Staying up and works well.

The backing peels off. I prepare the area by cleaning it lightly and quickly with paint thinner, as it may remove the finish. Then peel off backing. This stuff sticks permanently and was great.

I was able to remove it, to reposition it, while I was applying it to a wall papered surface. It does not appear to be super sticky, I would imagine it would come off, but it would be letter by letter, only the letters stick. I do not know if it could cause damage to paint.

Not at all in my experience, but I'd expect to at least use some Windex after you remove it. You're likely to smudge the windows pretty badly putting it on or taking it off.

I agree about using double-sided tape ... think long term ... when you want to remove again, you can scrape it off again to reuse ... be sure to use WD-40 too for removal. I think your Super glue will be more difficult to remove when the time comes to remove the residue for an unscratched window.

You need to peel the clear plastic backing off. It's like a sticker. Use two pieces of masking tape in the corner and use it pull apart and separate. You need to spray it while you peel it with soapy water so it doesn't touch itself and stick together. If you haven't tinted Windows before, I suggest you watch some videos on utube. It's not easy if it's your first time doing it.

Peel and stick above window. On the paint part. I've had them for a year and they are still holding on. For the price I expected to replace them by now. But they are better quality than you would think. If you buy them line all four up before you stick them. They aren't coming off.

No, not unless the paint is already loose. I used it around a painted steel patio door all winter. The best weatherstrip I've ever used, but don't expect to open the door or window until the tape is completely removed.

Judith...no, you do not. It's like the kid's "color forms" that use static cling to adhere to glass. I just measured the window width x length, marked the film and carefully cut along the line to keep it straight. After that, I just stuck it up to the window and tried to do it gently and slowly to get the air bubbles out from under it. It's not for windows you must see clearly thru but I love it for all the others! I even use small pieces to cover the sun coming in the passenger side of my car! Definitely keeps the heat at bay and in winter, I peel it off, store it and use it again next summer! EZ-PZ! :) Judith...no, you do not.

I used this on a steel boat tank. My tank needed a repaint so I did not need to be careful. It did not seem to peel paint that it got on. I would not want to get it on good paint though, as it is very tenacious and not easily removed. I do not know how it would effect a plastic or fiberglass tank. It can be painted once dry and seems to be holding up well. Mike

Hi. I have used this product. The two sided tape is probably the best I have ever used and I believe it will stick to your aluminum windows.

I have used it. Worked great, looks awesome. Not sure what your painting, but 1 can was just enough to pain a small car door. I used this because it had the hardener "activator" and the glass looks like it was sprayed out of a gun

I have mine placed on the outside of my tinted window and it's holding up great here in the Pacific Northwest with it's infamous wet weather. I think that if you use an adhesive remover like "Goo Gone" to remove the sticker, you shouldn't have any problems.
