      i recently got two offerings from local glazier in vienna:

      For a 120x70cm Mirror (light transmission 10-15%)
      6mm for 380€
      3mm for 286€

      light transmission 7:1
      SGG SPYGLASS for 192€

      has anyone experiences with such transmission rates? i would like to use the mirror in my bathroom.

      kind regards
      Christoph

          Do you have experiences with this vendor? The price sounds rather fair, but they mention a light brown accent due to the reflection material. I’m curious how this looks like.

            I got a whole mirror-test-set from glastroesch.
            1%, 12%, 20%, 30% & 40%.
            So i had the chance to do some test. The results:

            • 12% when you use the mirror in a dark room & don’t want to see the casing

            • 20% when you have a window or something like this next to the mirror

            • 1%, 30%, 40% are not usable (1% you can’t see anything, 30&40% you see the bleeding of the backlight)

            If you wanna know more, don’t hesitate to contact me :-)

              Do you actually see the golden shine glastroech mentions on their website for 12% mirror glass?

                Depends on the definition of “see”
                I mean, it looks like a normal mirror to me but ofc you can see a little golden “glance”.
                In my opinion it’s acceptable quality…
