3M Scotchgard Pro Series 200 Matte
Matte paint on vehicles has become trendy in recent years. Many owners have their vehicles repainted with a matte finish in the aftermarket while some car and truck manufacturers offer it as original equipment. Either way, matte paint is an investment and requires more ongoing maintenance than standard high gloss paint. 3M’s Pro Series 200 Matte satin paint protection film does for matte paint what 3M’s Pro Series 200 Gloss PPF does for regular paint – it protects it.

3M’s authorized installation network uses computer-cut film patterns specific to your car’s year, make, model, and trim level to ensure proper fit and finish.
If your vehicle has standard high gloss paint and you’d like to change it to a matte look, 3M’s matte PPF
can do just that. Install it on part (sideview mirrors, hood stripes, etc) or all of the car for that desired look
while protecting the paint underneath.

3M holds the original patent to PPF, dating back to the 1960s.
Scotchgard Pro Series 200 Matte Product Highlights
Matte Satin Finish
Leaves the matte finish of your vehicle’s paint unchanged. And you can treat 3M PPF just like standard paint. It can be washed, waxed, and topped with a ceramic coating.
The Original
3M Company holds the original patent to paint protection film, first producing it for the US military.
8 mils (.008”) thick
Other manufacturers advertise 8 mil thick films but fall short when measured with a micrometer. Those thinner films offer less protection than 3M’s slightly thicker film. Watch the video demonstration.
10-Year Nationwide Warranty
Manufacturer’s warranty is backed by a 120-year-old company that is also the original patent holder of PPF.
Self-Healing
Unlike your car’s paint, light scratches to the film easily disappear in warmer temperatures or with some applied heat.
Hydrophobic & Stain-Resistant
Film repels water, making it less likely its clear coat will stain or get water spots.
Non-Yellowing
Today’s films do not yellow like they did in the past. 3M warranties that its films will not yellow.
Listed on Carfax
3M PPF installed by a 3M-certified installer will appear on your vehicle’s Carfax report once you register your product warranty.
Accept No Substitutes
Watch the video to see how 3M stacks up to the completion (Xpel, SunTek / Llumar, STEK) in terms of thickness and protection.
