3M™ Color Stable IR — Great Style and Everyday Value

Color Stable IR is an excellent choice for drivers who want a rich charcoal appearance, improved comfort, and dependable 3M quality at an accessible price.

Its ceramic technology helps reduce solar heat, while its fade-resistant color helps your tint maintain its attractive appearance over time. With several shade options available, you can choose the level of privacy and sunlight reduction you prefer.

  • Rejects up to 64% of total solar energy, depending on shade and glass.
  • Ceramic technology helps reduce heat entering through your windows.
  • Fade-resistant color helps your vehicle continue looking sharp.
  • Multiple shades let you customize appearance, privacy, and sunlight reduction.

Choose Color Stable IR if: You want a stylish charcoal look, everyday heat control, and excellent value.

3M™ Ceramic IR — More Comfort in the Heat

If keeping your vehicle cooler is a top priority, Ceramic IR gives you a noticeable upgrade in heat comfort. Its advanced nano-ceramic technology helps reduce infrared heat and the uncomfortable feeling of direct sunlight on your skin.

Ceramic IR combines strong performance with a clean, neutral appearance, making it a popular choice for drivers who spend a lot of time on the road or want enhanced comfort without a metallic look.

  • Rejects up to 95% of infrared radiation within 3M’s specified measurement range.
  • Rejects up to 66% of total solar energy, depending on shade and glass.
  • Blocks up to 99.9% of ultraviolet light.
  • Helps reduce glare while adding privacy, depending on shade.

3M™ Crystalline™ — Premium Heat Rejection Without a Dark Look

Crystalline is the ideal choice for customers who want premium heat rejection without necessarily choosing a dark tint. Its advanced multilayer optical technology uses more than 200 layers to help manage sunlight and heat.

That means you can enjoy a more comfortable interior while keeping your windows relatively light and open-looking. Crystalline is also available in darker shades if you want additional privacy and a deeper appearance.

  • Advanced multilayer technology provides substantial heat rejection.
  • Lighter shades help reduce heat without making your windows look heavily tinted.
  • Blocks up to 99.9% of ultraviolet light, depending on product and glass.
  • Helps reduce glare, depending on shade.
