Pros & Cons
Pros
It is possible to buy a privacy filter that you are satisfied with - they are out there. The gold screen for the 17 mac pro fits over the entire screen of the 15. Mac pro. I prefer the gold filters for privacy when you can get them, but sadly they're ... Read More
Remove all smears and greaseyness and fingerprints. Mounting is fine. If you have a larger black area surrounding the lighted screen area, you can safely place the mounting tapes out of the visible screen area.
Cons
Price (and all the long, wordy hype) is not commensurate with the improved privacy it alleges! The filter for a 14 inch screen is such a disappointment. Both glossy sides tend to attract fingerprints!
Highlights
Quality
I am satisfied, in fact very pleased with this 3m gold filter performance as of this date.

This can happen if you don't have a perfectly dry environment, or haven't been careful in wiping the screen and your hands dry!
Competitiveness
Even with flagging anti-glare properties and manufacturer-specific adhesion hiccups, this is a 5-star buy if you can find it at... Read More

Buying the wrong size and having to deal with returns is not something you want to deal with

Part of the reason why you might consider doing this is that if you have a larger black area surrounding the lighted screen area you can safely place the mounting tapes out of the visible screen area

I have to caution you that if you spend time looking at the reviews be careful to look at the reviews for the gold filters and not any other type black
