Want to fasten solar window screen (metal frame) over top of metal window frame on outside of house. Will this stuff work? Needs to be solid seal of course to hold up to wind and rain.

This product is very strong and should hold well in your application. Make sure the metal is very clean so adhesive backing will bond properly.

It might work...it is pretty darn tough..cheap enough to try and see if it works. I used it to attach a knife bar to the tile in my kitchen. I don't know about moisture but the glue is pretty strong...see if it works!

I purchased a roll of vinyl mesh screen(for a sun screen, not window screen) and I put the grommets along the top and tied them to my canopy on my deck to filter out the sun. Made them so I could roll them up. Worked very well and the grommets are real easy to use. Hope this helps.

I've never used the 3M windoweld, but this stuff is commercial grade. I used it to repair the rear window set into the rag top of my Audi TT; it worked great. I did this last year and still holding strong. Make sure to wear gloves...it took two weeks for it to wear off my hands!

my windows have metal frames, I used alcohol, didn't really think about it. as long as the surface is clean the velcro should stick.

I am not sure about using on car window. There are small holes to allow some light through, but there is a slight distortion looking through it. May work well on a sun roof. I get little to no bubbles by using a spray bottle with water and a credit card to smooth it out. I use clear nail polish in the corners to hold in place, I have had three skylights covered going on 6 years now and only one had to be replaced due to a major storm. I have reused two others on sliding doors for the past 4 years and have not had any problems with the reapply.

I stuck a piece of folded paper/cardboard between the shade and the window (fully closed) and left it there for about 24 hours. With the heat, the shade warped a little just so it cleared the window from hitting it. There was also another area that was hitting. I reinforced the double sided tape and fixed that

I don't believe the Frost King tape has the tensile strength needed to hold up the window. It is more designed to stick to a surface in place and keep out drafts. That's all I have ever used it for.

I live in a very windy area and my solar shade is holding up well. I left a little slack when I put it over my over the top of my pergola to give a little on the windy days.

i think it would work great. someone told me that putting this on our fiberglass boat, especially the top part of the boat that is exposed to sun constantly, would prevent any type of fiberglass slivers. so far, it's working for us. good luck.

I am no expert on this, but I believe you would apply the film to the inside part of the windows. I know that's were mine went. I have heard of people installing the film on the outside, but it would seem to have a shorter life time due to the elements.Craig

Our is the same way, we decided to buy the "extreme Velcro" and cut it into pieces. We used the velcro to adhere to around the door frame and house and it's worked like a charm. We ended up doing this on two doors, and it works so well, we left if up over thew winter. We only have to replace one piece of velcro that came off the house (adhesive wore off). By far the best solution. The velcro is here: http://www.amazon.com/Velcro-Extreme-Outdoor-Fasteners-90812/dp/B001O6T2ZS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1397491038&sr=8-1&keywords=outdoor+velcro

I expect it will work. It should be strong enough and I have found it to be highly resistant to heat. One cautionary note: If there is any coating on the glass such as a tinting material, the adhesive will likely damage it when it is removed. Should be no problem on bare glass, aluminum, or the like.

I use staple gun to attach to simple window frame for a screened in porch. Duct tape would work for a quick fix too.

I don't know how well it adheres to plexiglass. I used this in my bathroom over the shower/bath window, and it has adhered well for years in a moist environment. If your area is subject to temperature extremes, such as the midwest, I don't know that outside is a good idea. As Jason suggests, I'd check the manuf.'s recommendations.

Yes, but you may need a strip of double face tape to secure it since the initial application wore off the sticky. Ideally the shade should be a tight fit to eliminate drafts. (In a basement window, I stapled the top of shade )

It could work but remember this is reflective silver color if you don't mind blocking sun light this would work or if you cover the seams of the window by trimming it to fit this would work too. This product I would recommend it it works well.

Our windows lead directly outside, and we placed thin sliding doors on the outside over screen to close the area when we leave or if it rains.I don't know if that would work with a sun room.
