“Fatima Blush: Oh, how reckless of me. I made you all wet.
James Bond: Yes, but my martini is still dry. My name is James.”
Do you, a Smart Glass movie lover, remember what movie this quote is from? Sean Connery fans screaming – “Never Say Never Again”, 1983.
As the fans of this unrivaled spy, notorious womanizer and masculine icon ourselves, the Smart Glass Tech Team was very excited to work on one of the yachts that was filmed in this legendary movie – introducing the “Small World”…
Our team was honored to be chosen for that delicate job – putting the Smart Film on top of the “star”- yacht windows.
As with the majority of yacht owners, Jack had an issue with blocking the sunlight whenever this was necessary. He had some experience with the shutters, but this time wanted the best innovative technology for his 44 year-old princess.
Direct exposure to UV and Infrared radiation is not only bad for the floors and furniture, but also to your health. Smart Glass and Smart Film block 98% of harmful UV rays and 95% infrared radiation protecting you and your loved ones.
Smart Glass Tech certified installers had to face two big challenges:
- Impeccably measure the rounded corners
- Install the PriWatt Film on the shaped glass
I In order to solve the first issue, we used patterns. The process started with putting a blue tape of the right size pattern and then removing everything altogether. Then another solution was found – the repair workers measured each window from frame to frame and cut out the wooden pattern of each size, so the Smart Glass Tech installer could manually adjust the patterns and measure every corner for the Smart Film. The job had to be neatly done, as everything on the boat is custom-sized.
For the second issue, our installer put a lot of effort into inspecting and cleaning the glass, as some of the scratches are harder to spot on green glass, than on transparent glass. But with our experience, everything is possible!
PriWatt Smart Film was applied on 8 windows with a total of 77 square feet. Three power transformers were connected to control the privacy from three separate switches. The whole job was neatly done in two days.
The customer was very happy with the results and promised to take the whole Smart Glass Tech Team on a boat trip once the remodeling was finished.
