will this paint work on the outside of a window screen? my birds hit my windows even with screens on them.

No. This liquid was made to wipe on glass. I suggest you try the feathers. Works on my windows. The challenge would be to fasten it to the screens or to a dividing wall. The product comes with suction cups.

I don't think so. The paint is reflective and I think it needs the glass surface to do that.

you need enamel paint for glass then just hand wash it comes off easy I would not use out door paint on glass

If you place it outside it will get wet,without the water causing damage. It will NOT float in water. If submerged, I think it will eventually damage the paintwork.

The decals work very well in keeping the birds from hitting the window for the most part. If your feeder is attached to the window or extremely close you may not need them. The birds fly toward the window when they are startled and because they see the window reflection of the yard in the background they fly toward the window. If the feeder is next to the window the birds will not have enough flight speed to hurt themselves. But the decals do help to a great degree with our set up since our feeders are 15 feet from the kitchen window. You have to put several decals on the window to work properly. Hope this helps.

I agree with Mickey's answer below. There is no reason why you COULDN'T put it on the outside of the window as the instructions are to clean the window, apply a mixture of soap/water to the window using a spray bottle, position the trimmed to fit film and then squeegee (supplied) the film to get the water out. However, it would likely have a shorter life due to the elements it would face (changing temps, humidity, pollution...) and I don't know whether it would maintain its "stick" if it is outdoors. Bottom line is "I don't know."

I used this to paint the screened lid of an outdoor fireplace. The 3/4" inch wide main supports (that the screen attaches to) and the ring still look great. I painted the screen as well and I think some of the paint has burned away, but this was a light coat on a very thin mesh. I think it will work for you.

It would project it THROUGH the window unless you put some paper on the opposite side to the one you are painting. But that's a fairly easy fix, I'd think. Another alternative that I personally would find to be awesome is to get the glass sandblasted. The frosted glass would take the outline projection perfectly, and you could use that as an element in your work by leaving some of the frosted portions unpainted. It would also make it much less likely that the paint would peel later. I could understand why that wouldn't be practical for a lot of the projects you might try but sounds kinda cool right? Edit: I see Pam there beat me to the paper idea. So I'll see you paper and raise you 3020 Liquid Masking Film 32 oz here on Amazon. Paint it on the opposite side, project, trace... and then when you don't need it anymore, peel it off like cling film.

I use these paints on anything! I don't however expect that it would hold up well outside in the weather. I have painted on paper, canvas, wood and even glass. Very versatile!

I put mine on the side window of our VW Bus. If placing on glass I suggest applying it like window tint, by wetting the window with a streak free sops and water mix and using a squeegee. To get all the bubbles out.

Yes, I had squirrels play outside the patio door that I installed the film on with me inches away! I was very pleased with the film! Spray bottle with water and keep the film and the window nice and wet during install as recommended!

I am no expert on this, but I believe you would apply the film to the inside part of the windows. I know that's were mine went. I have heard of people installing the film on the outside, but it would seem to have a shorter life time due to the elements. Craig

It will work on any Windows. With tint you may just need a little extra effort to get it to shatter.

I have the same kind of windows but the birds were only crashing into the window part, so I did not put them on the part with the screen. I don't think the sky reflects on the part with the screen so I didn't bother. BTW these decals worked great. They don't hit the windows anymore.

Go to the hardware and buy a can of Krylon spray paint for PLASTIC...i would recommentd only spray painting the outside..not the interior...might be unhealthy for the birds

I used it on some hand-painted bird houses and it works great. Very very glossy and tough. Just keep in mind this stuff has cyanide in it, so you MUST have a mask/respirator.

Hi Martha, I have not used this on outdoor products. I imagine the sun will cause the paint to crack over time.
