You're joking right? Foiling is a lost art for very good reasons. 1.
Technology has advanced. 2. Most Suppliers don't have foil anymore since
Brooklyn Foil went out of business. 3. Headaches Headaches Headaches.
4. There is no 4 5.Window washers.

My consensus is usually this, if the customer that we takeover has foil
and its in good condition we leave it. If it starts causing a problem
its gone and replaced with Sentrol 5150's or an acoustic glassbreak.
