You can watch the video below to see my installation process with these pvc strips. IвЂ™m actually seeing a lot of this! Your basic looking window and then adding window panes to step it up a notch visually. The magical thing about these pvc strips is that they can hide the white panes and they can also create panes for people who didnвЂ™t have them at all.

These are measured, cut, and applied to the windows with either double sided tape or with blade clips. These pvc strips from New Panes can be painted so I used the Pro-Industrial paint to match the window frame color. It was important for me to find a product like this so that the exterior side of our windows have realistic panes that can also hold up with the various weather elements and the Florida sun. I found these from New Panes where you can order in the quantity that you need. This step is crucial and so important to take your time!ДЄnother alternative is using pvc strips and cross pieces for more of a realistic look. This is going to give you that crisp, clean line without getting paint on the glass or the drywall after applying the paint.

The UI is dated and will remind you of the original MS Paint app bundled with Windows installation. YouвЂ™ll then apply the frog tape to outer side of the window frame. Paint.NET Paint.NET is based on the popular. If you have a top and bottom section to your window like mine, youвЂ™ll do this to both. In other words, youвЂ™ll be applying your frog tape on the glass as close to the frames as you can get it. Using the green frog tape, youвЂ™ll tape right along the edge of the interior window frame. But I promise you itвЂ™s 100% worth it! That moment you peel back all the plastic and painterвЂ™s tape is so satisfying seeing your brand new windows! Prep Work
