What is 'Cut Size' filmFilm that is 'Cut Size' as individual pieces is always cut slightly oversize so that once fitted it can be trimmed back so that there exists a 2-3mm gap from the frame to tint to ensure a clean, tidy installation. This is standard practice for all solar/decorative film installations. This is also stated in the measuring instructions here
The only films that are normally Cut 'to' Size for fitment purposes are the safety/security films, and this is done to ease installation of these thicker films, and as a result they also have a greater gap to the frame than solar/decorative films, but being a clear film, the gap is not as noticable. However, these films may still need some trimming after installation due to inconsistancies in window frames and trim fitment. Note: Once film is cut; there are no returns, refunds, or re-cuts (film will only be re-cut if original order is damaged in transit, or has been cut too small). Any inconsistancies in the gap between film and window frame or trim will be due to the frame or trim fitment - rarely do they have a 'true' straight edge.
