2-WAY MIRROR

HOW TO DETECT A 2-WAY MIRROR

When we visit toilets, bathrooms, hotel rooms, changing rooms, etc., how many of us know for sure that the seemingly ordinary mirror hanging on the wall is a real mirror, or actually a 2-way mirror i.e., they can see us, but we can't see them)?

There have been many cases of people installing 2-way mirrors in female changing rooms or bathroom or bedrooms. It is very difficult to positively identify the surface by just looking at it.

CONDUCT THIS SIMPLE TEST:

Place the tip of our fingernail against the reflective surface and if there is a GAP between your fingernail and the image of the nail, then it is a GENUINE mirror.

However, if your fingernail DIRECTLY TOUCHES the image of your nail, then BEWARE, IT IS A 2-WAY MIRROR! (there is someone seeing you from the other side).

The reason there is a gap on a real mirror, is because the silver is on the back of the mirror
UNDER the glass. Whereas with a two-way mirror, the silver is on the surface. Keep it in mind!
