Install 3M Vinyl Wrap in Chicago for an Affordable Price

What is a 3M vinyl wrap?

3M vinyl wrap is a technologically advanced film that is applied over the body of your car to renew its look, protect it from damage, or keep the original paintwork immaculate. Here at Tinting Chicago we carefully apply a thin layer of 3M wrap in a professional dust-free, moisture-free environment, with the help of special tools. Only these conditions guarantee impeccable application without bubbles, wrinkles, or cracks.

3M films and Tinting Chicago: your wrapping options

• Wrap a full vehicle of any type — sedan, SUV, van, boat, and even a helicopter!
• Choose partial 3M wraps: install film on the most vulnerable parts of your car such as the bumper or hood, or customize the wrap installation in any unique way, using the combination of colors and patterns
• Renew the look. First of all, our customers choose to wrap their vehicles in 3M vinyl to renew the look of their vehicle, or to quickly customize their design 
• Increase the resale value. The other group of our clients tends to wrap their cars because they want to keep or raise their resale value, which is easily achievable with the help of wrapping
• Save cash! 3M vinyl wrap is the most expensive on the market, but it is still much cheaper than the repainting work. Usually, you can save up to 50% on changing your car’s look when choosing to wrap it instead of repainting
• Advertise. 3M auto wrapping is used by multiple businesses as means of effective outdoor advertising (can be used on single vehicles or for the whole fleet)

Why we choose to work with 3M vinyl car wrap films

Proved by experience

Here at  Tinting Chicago, we have been testing the properties of a multitude of different vehicle wraps. After 12 years of continuous exploration, we have chosen only two to work with. And 3M is often the number one choice that we advise our customers. 3M is a market leader, an American company with great history, manufacturing advanced films since 1902. 

Perfect for application

3M’s motto is “Science applied to life”, and it couldn’t be more true: every product that we use in our 3M car wrap services is the most technologically advanced of all. A distinctive feature of the brand is high-quality durable adhesive films with very long service life. Due to their elasticity, the 3M films ideally follow the curves of the car, hiding all of the existing damage to the original paintwork. 

Technology in action

This is achievable thanks to a few groundbreaking technologies, invented by the brand. For example, in Controltac™ millions of small glass beads on the adhesive surface provide a unique feature that allows the film to be immaculately positioned on the car’s body during application. Comply™ technology is a duct system in the adhesive layer that helps to evacuate air for a quick, easy bubble-free application.
