    Those bubble and dust are hard to avoid when applying the film. I followed this instructional film on youtube and made a huge improvement to my own mirror.

    Watch the whole thing and I’m sure you’ll see a big improvement next time you try it.

      @planet4 tycker det är helt okej återspegling med tanke på att det är folie! Om du vill bättra på det så åk till närmsta glasmästare och fråga om dom köper glas från Pilkington. De tillverkar ett par olika tvåvägs speglar, inte jättedyrt och det går inte jämföra folien och en riktig tvåvägs-spegel.

      Sry for the Swedish above.

      If you’re annoyed that you can see through where the screen isn’t you could always get som black vinyl and apply around it, that way you block any light coming from inside the frame

          @broberg Tack, Jo jag läste om Pilkington med och jag kan ju lätt byta glas nu om jag vill. Har du köpt ett? Sitter själv i Götet men får väl kolla runt lite var man kan hitta glaset.

            @planet4 japp, köpte pilkington mirropane, kostade ca 1500kr för en 120*60cm stor spegel. Så här i efterhand kanske jag borde köpt deras mirroview istället då de släpper igenom mer ljus (mirropane 3% och mirroview 20% ljusgenomsläpp).

            3% funkar i ett normal till svagtbelyst rum, dagsljus, not so much

              I have still not made any vent holes to get rid of the heat from the monitor. I took a photo with my heat camera to see the change. Will post the photo after the vent holes soon. Notice that my reflection is generating some heat.

                @planet4 I got some cheap heat sinks for the RPi 3 I’m using just for safety, but my mounting solution avoids boxing the thing in. It’s open around the sides and looks as though it’s floating 4cm from the wall. This effect works fine for where I’m hanging my mirror - no one can see the sides!
