3M 2080 M12
3M™ Wrap Film Series 2080 - Matte Black (M12)
Embrace the Dark Side of Style
Imagine your vehicle transformed with a finish that’s as bold as it is sophisticated. The 3m black matte vinyl wrap from the 2080 Series is engineered to deliver a true, flat black that eliminates reflections and highlights the raw lines of your car. This advanced dual-cast film features revolutionary Controltac™ and Comply™ technologies that make installation easier than ever, even on complex curves and deep channels. The pressure-activated adhesive allows for effortless repositioning during application, ensuring a bubble-free, paint-like finish that looks like it rolled straight out of a custom shop. Unlike gloss films, matte finishes do not have a protective cap layer, so extra care should be taken during installation to avoid scratches.
Why Choose 3M™ 2080 Matte Black Vinyl Wrap?
The 2080 Series represents the pinnacle of vinyl wrap technology. Its enhanced conformability means the film stretches and molds to your vehicle's contours with minimal effort, reducing installation time and frustration. The dual-layer cast construction provides exceptional dimensional stability, ensuring your wrap won't shrink or distort over time. Whether you're wrapping an entire vehicle, creating custom accents, or executing a chrome delete, this film delivers professional results that last.
Key Features of 3M™ 2080 Matte Black Vinyl Wrap:
The 3M™ 2080 Series Matte Black vinyl wrap incorporates industry-leading technology designed for both professional installers and experienced DIY enthusiasts. The film features a true matte finish that absorbs light and eliminates reflections, delivering a stealthy, modern look. The dual-cast construction provides superior conformability, allowing the film to stretch and mold around complex curves, deep recesses, and challenging body lines without tearing or wrinkling.
The pressure-activated adhesive system with Controltac™ technology offers low initial tack, giving you the freedom to reposition the film during installation until you achieve perfect alignment. Once you apply pressure with a squeegee, the Comply™ air-release channels allow trapped air to escape effortlessly, ensuring a smooth, bubble-free application every time. Matte films do not include a protective cap layer, so careful handling during installation is recommended to maintain the pristine finish.
With up to eight years of outdoor durability and UV resistance, this wrap protects your original paint from stone chips, light abrasions, and harmful sun exposure while maintaining its deep black color. The 60-inch width allows for seamless coverage of large panels like hoods, roofs, and doors, minimizing visible seams and creating a truly custom appearance. When it's time for a change, the film removes cleanly without damaging your factory paint, making it the perfect choice for leased vehicles or those who like to update their look regularly.

A matte black car wrap is more than just a color change. It's a statement of power, sophistication, and individuality. The non-reflective surface creates a unique visual effect that accentuates your vehicle's body lines in a way that traditional paint cannot. It’s a popular choice for those looking to achieve a stealthy, modern aesthetic that stands out from the crowd.
Beyond aesthetics, this wrap provides a durable protective layer that shields your original paint from the elements. Stone chips, minor scratches, UV rays, and environmental contaminants are all blocked by the vinyl film, helping to preserve your vehicle's resale value. Whether you're looking to refresh a faded paint job, create a custom show car, or simply want to stand out from the crowd, the 3M™ 2080 Matte Black delivers unmatched quality and performance.
Hello Richard,
Thank you for the fantastic 5-star review! ⭐
We checked out your photo, and your Toyota RAV4 looks absolutely incredible wrapped in 3M™ 2080 Matte Military Green! The color gives it a rugged, adventure-ready appearance while still looking clean and refined. The contrast with the black trim and tinted windows really makes the wrap stand out.
It's a great photo and an excellent example of how versatile Matte Military Green can be on an SUV. Thank you for sharing your finished project—it looks fantastic!
We truly appreciate you choosing Rvinyl and hope you enjoy your RAV4's new look for years to come.

Great price, fast shipping and great customer service. Ordered 3M 2080 gloss black, and the film is excellent to work with.
Hello Travis,
Thank you for the fantastic 5-star review! ⭐
We're thrilled to hear you found a great price, received your order quickly, and had a great customer service experience.
3M™ 2080 Gloss Black is one of our most popular wrap films for a reason. Its excellent conformability, air-release technology, and deep gloss finish make it a favorite among both DIYers and professional installers.
We're glad to hear you enjoyed working with the film and that it helped make your project a success.
Thank you again for choosing Rvinyl and for taking the time to share your experience. We look forward to helping with your next wrap project!
Philip, Customer Support Guru
Great quality. Would highly recommend.
Hello Yovanis,
Thank you for the fantastic 5-star review of the 3M™ 2080 Gloss Black (G12)! ⭐
We checked out your photo, and your Toyota GR Supra looks absolutely stunning! 😎🔥 The Gloss Black finish perfectly complements the Supra's aggressive curves and wide stance, giving it an even more exotic, high-end appearance.
The installation looks fantastic too. Gloss Black is one of those colors that rewards careful work because every reflection tells the story. Your Supra looks sleek, deep, and mirror-like from every angle.
Toyota really knocked it out of the park with the GR Supra, and your wrap takes it from head-turner to neck-breaker 😄️
Thank you for sharing your photo and recommendation. We truly appreciate your support and hope to help with your next project!

They are very professional and have a quick response. Their products are more reasonably priced than most vinyl stores. The shipping is fast.
Hello James,
Thank you for the fantastic 5-star review! ⭐ We truly appreciate your kind words about our service, pricing, and shipping.
We checked out your photo too, and that 3M™ 2080 High Gloss Black (HG12) looks incredible on your grill🔥 That deep gloss finish really gives off the “freshly detailed at all times” look. Honestly, white vehicles are basically a part-time job to keep clean—but when they look this good, it’s worth it 😄
We’re glad our team was able to provide quick support and help make your experience a positive one from start to finish.
Thanks again for choosing Rvinyl and for sharing your project with us! ✨

Went on well enough. Didn't seem overly sticky at first, but has been on for almost a week and had no problems. Just used it to make some decals for my bumper.
Hi Tyler,
Thanks for the 5-star review! We’re glad to hear the 3M™ 2080 Satin Pearl White (SP10) went on well and is holding up nicely on your bumper decals.
That initial lower tack you noticed is normal with 3M’s Controltac™ adhesive—it allows for easier positioning during install, then builds a strong bond over time.
If you happen to have any photos of your decals, we’d love to see them!
Thanks again for choosing Rvinyl.
Best regards,
The Rvinyl Team
Great quality and fast shipping.
Hi Ava,
Thank you for the 5-star review! We’re glad to hear you’re happy with the 3M™ 2080 Satin Key West (S57)—it’s a great choice with a unique satin finish that really stands out.
We also appreciate you sharing your photo—your project looks fantastic!
Thanks again for your support and for choosing Rvinyl.
Best regards,
The Rvinyl Team
Was easy to apply and looks great ! Would recommend it.
Hi Dion,
Thank you for the 5-star review! ⭐ We’re glad to hear the 3M™ 2080 High Gloss Black (HG12) was easy to apply and delivered that sleek, mirror-like finish—it’s a classic for a reason.
And that photo—those two Mazda Miata racecars look incredible! 🔥 Clean, glossy, and ready to fly around the track. Miatas might not have the most horsepower, but they’ve got plenty of personality (and they clearly know how to look good doing it 😄).
Really appreciate you sharing the pic and the recommendation—it’s builds like yours that make this fun.
Thanks again for choosing Rvinyl, and good luck at the track!
Best regards,
The Rvinyl Team
Robert, thank you for your review and your business!
That Gloss Storm Gray looks incredible on your boat—seriously clean install. The finish has that sleek, modern look in the sunlight, and it really complements the lines of the hull. From your photo, it almost has that painted-on appearance 3M™ 2080 is known for.
Awesome project choice using G31 on a boat—it definitely stands out in all the right ways. Would love to see it out on the water!
Philip, Customer Support Guru
I am a beginner to wrap and it was fairly easy to work with! Definitely would recommend
Thanks for your review and your business, Hassan!
Glad to hear the 3M™ 2080 Matte Black (M12) was beginner-friendly—that’s exactly why it’s such a popular choice. From your photo, the finish looks clean and consistent, especially for a first-time wrap. Matte black is perfect for giving parts that smooth, stealthy look without reflections, and it looks like you nailed it.
Appreciate the recommendation, and we’re here if you take on your next project!
Philip, Customer Support Guru
Used this product to wrap my interior door sills and center console trip. It is very easy to work with, just takes some practice and the right tools.
Thank you, Brian!
We really appreciate the five stars on the 3M™ 2080 Carbon Fiber Black (CFS12). That’s a perfect choice for interior accents like door sills and center console trim — it adds a clean, sporty look.
You’re absolutely right — with a little practice and the right tools, it’s a very user-friendly film. Glad to hear it worked out well for your project!
If you’re up for it, we’d love to see photos of your interior setup!
Thanks again for choosing Rvinyl!
First time DIYer and thought I would try wrapping the roof of my 2018 Forester XT. I chose Satin black as the vehicle is a dark grey. The selection was perfect and the application took me some time, but I'm happy with the results. RVinyl initially sent me the wrong color, but quickly corrected the issue and sent me out the replacement with no questions asked! Definitely will order from again.
Thank you so much, Matt!
We really appreciate the five-star review — and the roof wrap looks fantastic! The 3M™ 2080 Satin Black (S12) was a perfect choice against the dark grey on your 2018 Forester XT. That contrast gives it such a clean, OEM+ look.
Major props for taking it on as a first-time DIY project, too. Roof wraps aren’t the easiest place to start, so that’s impressive! We’re also glad we were able to quickly correct the color mix-up and get the right film out to you without any hassle — that’s how it should be.
Thanks again for sharing the great photos and for giving us the opportunity to make it right. We look forward to helping with your next project!
With it being my first time wrapping a car, it came out really good. The finish looked like paint although I wish it had metallic in it. 3M 2080 series is very easy to work with and very forgiving.
Thank you, willgingerich!
We really appreciate the five stars on the 3M™ 2080 Gloss Hot Rod Red (G13) — especially for a first full car wrap, that’s impressive! Your Miata turned out great, and you’re absolutely right — the 2080 series is very forgiving and perfect for first-time installers.
Hot Rod Red has that clean, solid gloss finish that really does look like paint. If you ever decide you want that extra metallic pop, 3M does offer metallic red options that add that subtle sparkle in the sunlight.
Awesome job on your first wrap, and thank you for choosing Rvinyl! We’d love to see what you tackle next.
Perfect! Highquality material! Very easy to use with strong adhesive!
This is a good product, I wrapped my Class c RV and it looks really nice
It was my first time wrapping, and I had to purchase another piece since I made a mistake, but it was simple and well worth the effort.
Wrapped the hood and trunk of a c6 corvette and couldn’t have been happier with the install. Material worked great and the finish product with the metallic flake looked amazing.
For my particular project, this vinyl is perfect: I have a white piano shell that I use for my live keyboard gigs which I’m transforming into a classic black piano polish. This vinyl is perfect for giving it that classic piano black gloss look. I recommend watching the installation videos on how to apply this vinyl but otherwise installation is easy with the proper tools.
In the picture attached you can see the white piano legs that I’ve been vinyl wrapping - the bottom one is of course the one I finished vinyl wrapping. There are some finger prints from handling it but those can be polished off. The top leg is the white one I still need to wrap. And I’ve placed both of those legs on top of an actual black polished baby grand piano to show the comparison.
Worked great on my bike, love the look
Will this adhere to vinyl?
Yes, it will but we don't recommend applying over soft surfaces.
