Optically Clear. Technically Superior.
REFLECTIVITY THAT'S ACTUALLY LOWER THAN GLASS.
One of the major drawbacks of traditional window tint is that they tend to act like mirrors. 3M's premium line offers two style of window films that actually have less interior reflectivity than the glass they cover. Your windows will only reflect your commitment to keeping your home looking beautiful.
SUPERIOR HEAT REJECTION THROUGHOUT THE DAY.For most people, there are two primary reasons for installing window films: rejecting heat to increase comfort and fade protection from damaging UV rays. Our spectrally-selective films reject up to 97% of the sun's infrared light to help keep your home cool, your energy bills lower and your furnishings beautiful.
MULTIPLE SHADES TO SUIT YOUR NEEDS
| Clear |
PR 70- Because this film is barely perceptable when installed, this is a favorite film when the desire is to not change the appearance of the home. Prestige 70 is also very popular in retail installations because it allows an always clear view into the store day or night.
|
| Light |
PR 60- Still a nearly clear film, our light shade make this our most popular residential Prestige film. With a slight reduction in visible light, it helps with glare and provides slightly better heat and fade protection. Prestige 60 is so clear that it is still a challenge to notice when installed.
|
| Medium |
PR 50- This moderately shaded Prestige film is the obvious choice when greater heat reduction is require without signifacantly darkening the interior. It offers good glare control for rooms with TV or computer screens.
|
Dark
|
PR 40- Our darkest shade of Prestige is still only moderately shaded, yet offers maximum protection for heat, glare and fading. A clear choice on untreated transoms and in rooms where glare requires greater control.

A Solar Tech consultant will discuss your needs and provide samples of our solutions. It is possible to mix shades from room to room, East to West exposures or even top to bottom within one room as needed.

TOTAL SOLAR ENERGY REJECTED- ON ANGLE TEST We created a more stringent specification for the performance of these films: Total Solar Energy Rejected- On Angle. It proves that our films are unsurpassed throughout the day and especially during the hottest times when you need the help most. Some films that may claim similar performance are only comparable when tested perpendicular to the sun, which only happens at the relatively cool times of sunrise and sunset. So, when the sun is working hardest, our films are performing their best.
OPTIACALLY CLEAR. TECHNICALLY SUPERIOR. Creating a clear window film with all these advantages wasn't easy. It required the world-leading, nano-technology laboratories of 3M. This expertiese allows us to create a patented winidow film with hundreds of layers that is less than the thickness of a Post-it Note®. It has allowed us to create a film that delivers the highest performance possible without metal, which can corrode and interfere with mobile phone signals.
