3M Automotive Window Film Crystalline Series
Sun Control Without Darkening Windows
3M Crystalline is unlike any other automotive window film in that it is made of over 200 metal-free nano- layers of polyester, yet is thinner than a Post-it Note. These nano-layers allow Crystalline to block out 99% of the sun’s infrared heat (900-1,000nm) in order to keep a vehicle’s cabin cool without darkening its windows. It is perfect for the family car that transports kids and pets, K-9 law enforcement, or the driver that seeks protection from harmful UV rays. Backed by a national lifetime warranty, Crystalline is for the consumer who wants the best in technology and performance without the associated look of tinted windows.
Stay Cool
3M Crystalline Series allows the lightest tint to reject more infrared heat than many of the darkest films available. Rejection of up to 64% of the total solar energy and up to 99% of the heat-producing infrared rays gives you the ultimate in comfort.
Stay Connected
Crystalline Series is a non-metallized window film that won’t interfere with mobile devices, GPS, or satellite radio reception.
Superior UV Protection
Blocking up to 99% of ultraviolet (UV) light, 3M Crystalline provides a total Sun Protection Factor (SPF) of 1000. This helps provide vehicle occupants with significant protection from harmful UV rays.
See Clearly and Safely
3M Crystalline Series is designed to enhance your view by allowing visible light into your vehicle while keeping heat out, so you can see clearly through your windows and maintain your vehicle’s original appearance.
Reduce Glare
3M Crystalline reduces up to 77% of the glare from blinding sunlight, allowing you to see better and concentrate more on driving.
Limited Lifetime Warranty
3M Crystalline Series is backed by a limited lifetime warranty, one of the most comprehensive warranties you can get. Sold and installed by professional 3M Authorized Dealers, 3M’s films are durable, designed to last, and virtually maintenance-free.

Data shown is the estimated performance of film applied to ¼” (6mm) thick, 73% VLT automotive green glass. Data is for reference only.
*IRR - Percent of solar infrared energy in the 900 – 1,000 nm wavelength range that is rejected by the film. Measurement is made of film with liner alone (i.e. no glass).
**IRER – Percent of solar infrared energy that is rejected 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. Data shown is for the performance of film applied to glass.
