Benefits of Using Mirror Film

Decorating mirrors can be a simple way to introduce detail into a room. Mirror film is an adhesive sheet that sticks to the surface of the mirror, allowing you to modify its look with ease.

It’s offered in a range of styles such as frosted, tinted, or shaded options, helping you match the film to your preferred design. There’s no need for a full replacement to achieve a new look.

Why Pick Mirror Film?

• Budget-friendly: Altering your mirror with film is cheaper than buying a new one.


• Range of options: Choose from frosted for privacy depending on your goal.


• Do-it-yourself friendly: You can install the film yourself with minimal tools.


• Reliable: High-grade mirror films resist peeling and maintain appearance over time.

What Is Mirror Vinyl?

Mirror vinyl is crafted from soft vinyl that’s used for more customised mirror decoration. It's used to create designs, logos, or patterns that are applied directly to the mirror surface.

This makes it great for creating distinct visuals or branding without permanent change.

Benefits of Mirror Vinyl

• Creative freedom: Use logos, patterns, or text for distinctive looks.


• Adaptable material: Sticks to glass and other smooth surfaces.


• Temporary: Vinyl lifts off without damaging the glass.


• Low maintenance: Dust or clean it with standard cleaning tools.

Ideas for Applying Mirror Vinyl

You can apply vinyl to make bold changes. Try frosted finishes for bathroom mirrors, or artwork on living room mirrors for a decorative highlight.
