If I were to paint the other side of a clear panel will it look like chrome looking through from the non-painted side?

I've done that with plexiglass and it's pretty close to a mirror reflection looking through the non-painted side.

If you spray a gloss black backing over the chrome then yes. The black backer is the key.

There is a light finish on I, but I am pretty sure that is you do just a little sanding, a new paint color would stick.

The imagine I used was a thick black line drawing, and yes, you could still see it through the black coating. You had to be looking to know it was there, though, so I dont think it is too much of a problem. Your mileage my vary, though.

Hi, sorry but chrome is the only finish I have for this unit. Thanks, Kathy

no. it looks as in the pic, or maybe less. the paint is pretty thin, you can see slightly the wood color under.

No, it's darker than clear glass and slightly mirrored on both sides. It's definitely not "invisible."

No the entire cross bar is black, so it differs in color from the chrome/silver colored side rails.

I would say yes to exterior side of door or the side that you want it to be more visible. I have it on the inside of the window but we can also see it from the outside just as well. You will get a feel of the "texture" on the right side of the film. The other side is flat and smooth.

No, the any way you can see through it is if you look between the panel where the hinges are.

Yes. Consider painting the front two so you can see the orientation from a distance

To me it looks like chrome from a distance but it is black. But not solid black, like black speckled chrome. Looks nice but I really don't care what color it is as I am using it in the basement.

Mine is clear glass and chrome-like substance but it could be a shiny chrome-like plastic. This part seems to hold up okay.

Yes - the inside back wall is mirrored. The inside side panels are chrome. Steve K

The windows on mine were transparent, however mine was a different one, so if say that this one is tinted

No. You can see light if its in front of the panel, but it's not transparent which I take to mean easily seen through. If you sew, it's like an interfacing that's dense.

I did not paint mine and it looks really nice. If I look at it from the right angle, I can see the seams, but no one but me seems to notice them. If you roll it with white paint, the seams will virtually disappear. If you've got any overlap, the seams will show worse and painting might be more important. Mine's been up for almost a year unpainted. I'll probably paint it someday when I get the energy/time or when I want to sell the house.
