    Quick update - did it at the weekend with my blagged stuff from mate. Was terrified of it "taking" too soon, so probably oversprayed the window before application, so ended up spending ages rolling the water bubbles out from underneath. The trick seems to be the applicator thingy supplied, plus, smooth, stand back, wait for bubbles to reform, smooth, stand back, etc.

    Anyway, shower is now peek-free and I'm quids in on not buying curtains cos it works at night too :))

    Suered,
    what stuff did you you use in the end?
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely
    in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways -
    Chardonnay in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up,
    totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO, What a Ride!

    Frank1in, it was the stuff on a roll from Ikea. I don't think they sell that particular pattern any more, and I can't find it on their website, but have a feeling that I did see "plain" obscured stuff on a roll. It was in their 2005 catalogue, so might be in the current one if you've got the hard copy.

    Measure windows first though - the roll is only something like 1.5m x 50cm
