What are the series of 3M automotive films?
1 Answers
There are 5 series of 3M automotive films: Enjoy Series, Crystalline Series, Color Stable Series, Ceramic Series, and High Performance Series. Below are the detailed information: Enjoy Series: Utilizes silicon dioxide nano-coating technology, blocking up to 99% of UV rays; enhanced adhesion to the base film, making it more wear-resistant and anti-aging; front windshield light transmittance up to 76%; no interference with vehicle equipment and no signal blocking. Ceramic Series: Uses 240-layer 'multi-layer optical micro-adhesive film' as the base material and incorporates nanotechnology to achieve high light transmission, high heat insulation, and high blocking of infrared and UV rays. Crystalline Series: Light transmittance above 70%; excellent clarity; uses multi-layer ceramic optical film as the base material. Color Stable Series: Features nano non-metal technology; stable and long-lasting color; low internal reflection effect; no interference with vehicle equipment and no signal blocking. High Performance Series: Long-lasting as new, high-definition heat insulation; clear and bright, restoring the true colors of quality; aviation-grade wear-resistant coating, scratch-resistant; no interference with vehicle equipment and no signal blocking. The functions of automotive films are: Heat insulation and sun protection. Films can effectively block a large amount of heat generated by infrared rays. UV protection. Medium and long-wave UV rays can penetrate thick glass, and applying heat-insulating films can block most UV rays, preventing skin damage and reducing aging of car interiors. Safety and explosion-proof. The base layer of the film is polyester, which is highly tear-resistant and puncture-proof. Combined with the adhesive layer, the film enhances glass strength to prevent injuries from accidental glass breakage. Creating a private space. By choosing the right type, the film ensures that the inside of the car is not visible from the outside while maintaining visibility from the inside, preserving privacy and safety. Reducing air conditioning energy consumption. Heat-insulating films compensate for the loss of air conditioning cooling capacity, instantly lowering the interior temperature and achieving a certain level of fuel savings. Enhancing aesthetics. Films allow for personalized beautification of the car according to individual preferences. Reducing glare. Minimizing accidents caused by glare factors. Precautions for automotive films: Before applying the film, check if the window glass is intact and the overall condition of the car glass to ensure smooth film application. Cover necessary parts inside the car to prevent liquid infiltration. Clean the inner and outer surfaces of the windows before applying the film (focusing on the interior side and glass sealant areas). This ensures no dirt or particles between the film and glass, guaranteeing proper adhesion. Do not roll down windows within 3 days after film application. Avoid cleaning the heat-insulating film or turning on the defroster switch within a week. Do not use solutions containing alcohol or ammonia to clean the film surface. If bubbles appear after application, visit the installation shop within 24 hours for treatment. Avoid direct airflow from the AC onto the film to prevent severe thermal expansion and contraction. After applying the film, there should be no defects or particles. Professional installation must be done in a dust-free environment, which includes a sealed glass door, water mist spray heads, and air conditioning for dust removal, as well as a drainage ditch and special coatings on the floor to further reduce dust.
