3M clear film technology. The Crystalline Series features a proprietary, multilayer optical film nano-technology that combines over 200 layers in a film that is thinner than a Post-it® Note. This unique technology is the reason a clear film can reject more heat than darker films. Thin film technology is a core competency at 3M, and the multilayer film technology we incorporate in our newest window film is similar to those 3M developed for use in a range of trusted products found in your home or office.

A clear breakthrough in automotive window films.

3M Automotive Window Film Crystalline Series rejects more heat than many dark films without changing the appearance of your vehicle, making it the superior
choice for comfort.

Invented, innovated and improved.

Improving comfort, protecting vehicle interiors and blocking UV rays are hallmarks of 3MTM Automotive Window Films. 3M was issued the first sun control window film patent in 1966, and our innovative window

film products have helped provide protection from the sun’s harmful rays for 50 years. Put the innovation of 3M to work for you. 

Stay cool

The Crystalline Series allows the lightest tint to reject

more heat than many of the darkest films available.

Rejection of up to 62% of the total solar energy and

up to 97% of the heat-producing infrared rays gives

you the ultimate in comfort.

Terms to know

  • TSER – Total Solar Energy Rejection

    The percentage of total solar energy rejected by filmed glass. The higher this value, the less solar heat is transmitted.

  • VLT – Visible Light Transmitted

    The percentage of visible light that passes directly through filmed glass: the higher the number, the lighter the film.

  • Ultraviolet Rejection

    The percentage of ultraviolet (UV) light that is rejected by the filmed glass. UV light contributes to the fading and deterioration of fabrics and leather.

  • IRR – Infrared Rejection**

    The percentage of solar infrared energy rejection over the wavelength range from 900-1,000 nm. Infrared rays are primarily responsible for the heat you feel when driving.

  •  
  • IRER – Infrared Energy Rejection***

    The percent of solar infrared energy rejection over the wavelength range from 780–2,500 nm. IRER takes into account the transmitted and absorbed IR energy that will be reradiated into a car.

  •  
  • Glare Reduction

    The percentage by which visible light is reduced by the addition of film. Data shown is the estimated performance of film applied to ¼” (6mm) thick, 73% VLT automotive green glass. Data is for reference only.

The Skin Cancer Foundation recommends this product as an effective UV protectant.

Product Care Guide
• Give the 3M™ Window Tint time to bond to the window. To ensure product adheres properly, DO NOT open/close your windows or clean your windows for at least 48 hours after installation.
• When cleaning, use only a soft sponge or cloth (no brush). A soft microfiber towel is recommended for drying.
• Only use clean water. Sand and other dust particles from dirty water may scratch the window tint.
• The regular PH neutral cleaners that are commercially available can be used as long as they do not contain abrasives. We recommend using Meguiar’s brand window cleaning products.

Note: Because installation companies often do not have dust-free areas available, small dust inclusions are unavoidable.
