3M™ Interior Trim Film - Relief Metal Graphical Series

Distinctive Relief Patterns for OEM Automotive Interiors
3M™ Interior Trim Film - Relief Metal Graphical Series is a versatile and efficient method for creating truly distinctive automotive interiors. This film creates the appearance of custom-crafted metallic designs on interior automotive components. 3M achieves the authentic look of metal by including metal in the film formulation, without the added weight and expense. The textured or printed patterns are slightly raised to create a "touchable" feel to the component that adds dimension and depth to its appearance. In most cases, the film is supplied in custom finishes developed jointly between 3M and the individual OEM design studio. Automotive OEM designers can specify films in a wide variety of relief textures and patterns for a singular model and brand differentiation. The film can also be easily tuned for gloss and color to meet the most precise design specifications.

This interior automotive film features excellent tensile strength and deep draw capabilities — it has an elongation property of 300% at forming temperatures. This makes it suitable for stretching tightly around components for conformability, coverage and protection even across parting lines without compromising relief textures. The film applies using dual vacuum thermoforming (DVT), which makes for consistent, precisely conformed texture even across complex geometries.
