Edge Lift

Edge lift is a defect where window film begins to detach from the glass along the edges, typically caused by poor installation, adhesive failure or environmental stress.

Quality installations show no edge lift for the life of the film. Edge lift in the first few years usually indicates an installation defect — either inadequate edge bonding during install, poor tucking under the rubber seals, or contamination on the glass edge.

Edge lift in older films (8+ years) may indicate adhesive ageing. The fix is full removal and re-installation.

Infratint's warranty covers edge lift on premium installs. We catch and fix any lift detected on the post-installation QC walk-around before release.
