There are many ways to process glass. Since any mirror is mostly made of
glass, almost all of these methods of treatment can be applied to its surface.
Thanks to this, it is possible to ensure not only the unique appearance but
also the safety of the mirror coating.
Lamination and tempering of glass are designed to ensure its resistance to
shock and temperature extremes. The mirror, like glass, can be tempered or
laminated. The tempered mirror is made of glass treated by strong heating and
rapid cooling. Such a mirror is safe, resistant to high temperatures and
shocks.
With the purpose to create a laminated mirror, people use special
protective films that not only make a mirror coating stronger but also protect
you from sharp fragments if it is broken.
Of course, an equally important point in ensuring the safety of the mirror
is its secure attachment. Even the strongest mirror is likely to break if it
falls from a height. To fix the mirror right, you need to use high-quality
fasteners (or a mounting glue) and to take into account the characteristics of
the material to which the mirror will be attached, as well as to know the list
of rules for performing such work. For this reason, it is not recommended to
install mirrors on your own, as in this case there will be no guarantee of
reliability and safety of such an attachment.
