Can 3M window film withstand storms?
Yes, thicker 3M window films can withstand storms as the safety series is designed to help protect homes and occupants during violent weather. When storm debris hits a window with safety film, the glass will likely shatter. However, the safety film helps hold the broken glass in place, in the frame – keeping property safe from subsequent looters and wind/rain damage. Violent weather is unpredictable, so having 3M window film installed on a home offers 24-hour protection all year long. Anchoring the film to the frame is recommended for optimum glass breakage retention. In addition, the thicker the film the greater the glass breakage protection.
