I am trying to find out if there is a product available to tint existing skylights. I work in an office with many, many skylights that line the entire ceiling and the glare is killing us. we are looking into options for window tint. Does anyone know of any product that can be painted on that would still give a translucent, tinted look? Or is the tinted film the only option? Any suggestions would be really appreciated.Commercial window tinting options?
There are many window film product solutions for skylights. It would be helpful to know if your skylights are glass or made out of a polycarbonate material like Lexan? For your question let's assume it's made of glass.
You can install a highly reflective film like 20 Silver- CP Films -LLumar has this type of film as do almost all film manufacturers. This will knock down the glare and heat. Check http://www.vista-films.com for a local dealer You can also have a translucent film opaque for example installed for more diffused light. If the skylight is polycarbonate- a vinyl version of this film is available.
The next question is access to the glass. If ladders or scaffolding is required the labor cost would be higher. I'd stick with a film since the pain will heat up and eventually fail. The window films are warranted for a decade or more and they also will cut your cooling costs and 99.9 % of UVA and UVB which have been linked to skin cancer issues.
