3M’s new next generation Wrap Film brings updated technology and protection for vehicle wraps

3M introduces an industry first – the new 3M Wrap Films Series 2080 gloss films which come engineered with a Protective Film Layer, allowing for easier installation. Further innovations in the new 3M Wrap Films Series 2080 include better conformability for further ease of installation and an extended warranty of up to seven years on vertical applications, to drive greater confidence and peace of mind for both installers and consumers.

New innovations in film technology are consistently being improved to achieve smooth and distinctive wrap designs. The patent-pending Protective Film Layer on gloss colours comes positioned over the top of the film’s surface to reduce the potential for surface imperfections, such as hazing or blotchiness. This remains in place during the installation and is removed easily once the film is applied to reveal a perfect finish. As a result, vehicle owners and installers will have the peace of mind that any scratches made to the Protective Film Layer will not transfer to the film itself, nor mar the look of the completed wrap.

“The new 3M Wrap Films Series 2080 gloss films ensure both quality aesthetics and performance, and we’re excited to see the impact it has for installers and their customers,” says Janelle Pizzi, product marketer, 3M Commercial Solutions Division.

Simultaneously, the warranty backed by science means installers and consumers can have increased confidence that when wrapping a vehicle with 3M film, it will both perform during installation and uphold its striking appearance when maintained correctly.

The multi-layer cast, adhesive backed film will be first available in 41 colours, of which there are six new colours available to meet current consumer and trend demands - all of which can be used with 3M Knifeless Tape.
