      Hello comrades,
      I was wondering if I can take any foil from Amazon.
      As it’s my first Mirror I want to try to keep the costs low.

      Any suggestion of foil for the mirror …
      Germany / Austria area

      Greetings

        You can use the one-way reflective foil, sure. I have the foil around here somewhere, but I haven’t rigged it up yet. My suggestion is to go to YouTube and watch videos on applying car window tint. It’s basically the same process.

        Another possibility is to purchase one-way acrylic instead of glass. It will be more than the glass-and-foil method, but it will be less than a proper piece of one-way glass.
