How To Make 3D LED Infinity Mirror Video

3D LED infinity mirror commonly used for wall decoration, is a set of LEDs placed around the periphery of a fully reflective mirror, and a second, partially reflective (one-way mirror) is placed a short distance in front of it, in a parallel alignment. When an outside observer looks into the surface of the partially reflective mirror, the lights appear to recede into infinity, creating the appearance of a tunnel of lights of great depth.

4) Spray the glass with soapy water and apply the film. Squeeze out all the air pockets by using an old gift card. Leave the film for couple of hours to dry and that trim the edges. Now place the tinted glass in frame, but make sure the tinted surface of the glass is inside, so it will face the mirror back on the frame. Refit the inner frame pieces to hold the tinted glass back in place.
