3M Company 2141 62" x 210" Indoor Window Insulation Kit September 27, 2008
3M uses Scotch for its tape and it is the only way to go. I once used some cheap insulation kit and the tape included did not stick well.
Works well. February 9, 2008
This window insulation works really well at sealing up drafty windows. The secrets in the double sided scotch tape and shrinking plastic film. You can also make this product yourself out of double sided tape but really need this shrinking film.
Once its heated and fairly tight, the film becomes almost completely clear. You almost can't even tell its on the window.

It's smart for a couple reasons. Of course, the concept is simple: trap the air between the glass and the room and the air becomes the insulator. But it's all in the implementation and that's where this product shines. It uses double-sided tape that isn't so sticky that it will pull of paint when removed. Have to get that right and they did. The real attention to detail is the film material. When installed, it better not look tacky. So they formulated the material to shrink just enough to tighten it up to pull out the hard and soft wrinkles, but not pull away from the tape! Don't worry if the tape and the film lie on perpendicular planes. The film won't pull off when it shrinks. It's resilient enough not to overcome the film-to-tape adhesion. Again: brilliant.
It is also optically clear, not at all diffusive. That is another absolute must. I was simply amazed at how this product brings all this together into a cheap, effective solution to drafty old windows. Someone reviewed that the tape wouldn't stick to their window frame. Probably a surface prep issue. In my application the paint was new and firmly bonded. I even had strongly curved surfaces to tape over. I found that heating the tape with a hair dryer helped conform it to those surfaces. Directions don't address that issue and for flat surfaces it's not one. This is a great product!

Excellent product. Made a big difference in my drafty apartment! Easy to install as well - though I recommend tag-teaming the project with someone. Goes much faster that way.
