The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 makes available monies for 3M Window Films.
Crystalline
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 your 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.
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 99% of the heat-producing infrared rays gives
you the ultimate in comfort.
See clearly and safely
The 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.
Stay Connected
The 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, the
Crystalline Series provides a total Sun Protection Factor
(SPF) of 1000. This helps provide vehicle occupants with
significant protection from harmful UV rays.
Reduce glare
The Crystalline Series reduces
up to 77% of the glare from
blinding sunlight, allowing you to see
better and concentrate more on driving.
Limited lifetime warranty
The 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 Dealer Installers, our
films are durable, designed to last and virtually
maintenance free.
3M Crystalline is available in many shades, from 90% (lightest) to 20% (darkest).

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.
