Obsidian
3M Obsidian Automotive Window Film is a metal-free, entry-level dyed film that is unlike any other
dyed film. 3M uses its patented “Infuse Technology” to embed a series of dyes into the
polyester film. For the consumer, that means richer color, increased performance, and greater color
stability. Backed by a national lifetime warranty, Obsidian is perfect for the consumer who seeks
performance at a budget-friendly price.
3M Obsidian is available in many shades, from 70% (lightest) to 5% (darkest), to comply with the tint laws of various states.

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.
