Video Transcript for Hopkins Sunscreen QuickCling Vehicle Window Shade Review

Hi guys, I'm Ellen here at etrailer.com, and today we're gonna take a look at the Hopkins QuickCling window shade. And anytime you've ever had your kids in the back seat of the car, a lot of times that sun comes in and they just aren't too comfortable, get excessive heat, too much light, just not a fun car ride for anybody.So this QuickCling shade is just gonna be a little, kind of film cling to go on your, inside of your window and help to reduce that glare and excess heat. Let's take a look at it.The QuickCling is easy to install as the name suggests. It's just going to be a cling strip or piece that we adhere to our window. There's no kinds of residue that comes with this, it just attaches pretty much by static. So it'll cling on there, smooth it down, and it holds in place.

The thing I like about that is that we can switch it from one side to the other as we're maybe going on a road trip, we need to change the side of where our cling is. Or if, as we're going, the angle of the sun changes we need to make quick adjustments to that shade, we can do all of that.I also like that with this, unlike the roller style of shade, there's a less chance that your kiddo will mess with it and get it to come off the window, since pretty much unless you've got fingernails you won't be able to take this off. So, it's a pretty versatile sunscreen shade.Our shade is going to be 16 inches wide by 12 inches tall, and if you wanted to you could always get two shades, maybe have them going side by side and you could always cut it to fit your window.Getting our shade in place is gonna be pretty easy, you wanna make sure that you clean off your glass first, get rid of all those fingerprints and other things, then we'll just unroll it, peel off the backing. Before you install it you might want to lay it out flat somewhere, maybe under a heavy book.So, just peel off our shade from the backing and we're just gonna do one corner first. And I'm pretty much gonna center mine on the window.

The nice thing about this is that it's not a permanent install, so if we need to adjust it, you can always take it back off.Just toss . that away. So I need to get mine a little bit further over. It's kinda got a staticky cling, hence the name, QuickCling. I'll just get it in place, and once we have it roughly where we want it, we can then start smoothing out any bubble and get it to to be more fully seated onto our window.And that's all there is to it.To get out any of those last air bubbles, we can come back with something like a credit card, or something flat that we can move across that surface.

Helps to just get out those last air bubbles on our shade.And that's gonna do it for our look at the Hopkins QuickCling sunscreen shade.
