Review: Excellent product - Good product clicked images of eclipse with the help of film
Review: TOP Preis / Leistung - Ja die Folie ist nicht ganz günstig, dafür schützt diese unsere Augen vor der Sonne. Ich habe mir aus 2 Holzringen einen Rahmen gefräst und die Folie dazwischen geschraubt. Nach einer Beobachtung der Sonne mit der hiesigen Kita waren die Kinder begeistert, so hatte noch keiner die Sonne gesehen. Das Bild ist mit dem Handy durch das Okular entstanden, daher die schlechte Qualität

## Questions & Answers

**Q: One side is silver and the other black. Does it matter which side is pointing at the sun?**
A: silver must point to the sun so it deflects as much light as possible

**Q: Can this sheet be heat laminated without damaging the sheet?**
A: Sandwich the film between two pieces of plexiglas, so it makes the film lay flat. Seal the edges of your "plastic/film/plastic" sandwich, with hot glue.

**Q: Can I use this to make solar eclipse glasses?**
A: Yes.

**Q: Is this the same product that was $29.95 last month?**
A: The price has been changing upwards for a while now.   I bought some a month ago for a much more reasonable price.  Seems like supply/demand and price elasticity is being tested now.
