3M™ Wrap 2080 - Dead Matte Black DM12
The 3M Dead Matte Black vinyl wrap is more than just a color; it's an experience. Engineered for the most discerning enthusiasts, the 2080 Series DM12 provides a finish so flat it appears to drink in the light around it. This ultra-matte surface is perfect for creating a dramatic, menacing presence that stands apart from the crowd. While its unique texture means it does not include a protective cap layer, requiring extra care during installation, the final result is a breathtakingly smooth, deep, and completely non-reflective surface. Thanks to 3M’s advanced Controltac™ and Comply™ adhesive technologies, this professional-grade film allows for repositioning and bubble-free application, ensuring the void-like finish is flawless.

Step into the shadows and embrace the purest form of stealth with the 3M™ 2080 Series Dead Matte Black vinyl wrap. This isn't just matte; it's the absence of reflection, a void that absorbs light and commands attention through its sheer intensity. For those who believe that true presence is felt, not seen, the DM12 Dead Matte Black finish offers an unparalleled, ultra-flat aesthetic that transforms any vehicle into a statement of aggressive, uncompromising style. Forget sheen, forget gloss—this is the new standard for the ultimate stealth look.
Why Choose 3M™ 2080 Dead Matte Black?
When only the most extreme matte finish will do, the 3M™ 2080 Series DM12 stands alone. This film is the pinnacle of non-reflective technology, offering a deeper, flatter black than any other wrap on the market. Its dual-cast construction ensures it conforms to the most challenging curves, from sharp body lines to deep recesses, without lifting or distorting. The ultra matte black car wrap is not just about looks; it’s about achieving a unique, tactical aesthetic that feels as intense as it appears. Choose DM12 when you want to make a statement that is both powerful and silent.

First time vinyl wrapping. Wrapped interior trim of my BMW 328i E92. Had quite a few "do overs" of a few pieces. Corners were most difficult for me to master and make trim look good. In the end, I recommend giving it a try. The 3M 2080 is easy to work with once you get the hang of how much heat to use and streatching the material can tolerate before tearing. Pro Tip - buy extra.... :)
Thanks so much for sharing your experience, Rob!
It’s awesome to hear you took on your first DIY wrap and stuck with it—even through the learning curve. You’re absolutely right: once you get a feel for the right amount of heat and stretch, 3M™ 2080 really starts to shine. And that pro tip is spot on—having extra material on hand makes all the difference, especially for those tricky corners.
Your BMW interior sounds like a great project to start with, and we’re glad to hear it turned out well in the end. Appreciate you recommending others give it a try!

Easy to work with as long as you take your time with it, came out great.
Installation was smooth and adhesive was effective, very easy to work with for my first time, ordered a 5x5 panel to do my roof
Worked perfectly for wrapping my bow ties on my Tahoe
It perfectly matched the skyscraper gray color of my BMW X$ M60i for the vinyl wrap application I was planning to do. Easy to use and good adhesive power.
I used this material to cover the after market door cards on my Miata. The material is very thin and easy to apply. The look is exactly what I was after. Very happy with the way it came out.
First time wrapping! Material was great and as advertised!
This was my first time doing a Vinyl Wrap and after watching some of the videos online i was able to figure out how to do it i think it came out great
I wrapped my wind deflector on my Harley and received so many compliments. My bikers friends are amazed by the appearance of my bike. The product is great to work and it looks awesome on my bike. Great product and I have recommended to my biker friends.
Time after time the quality and speed of delivery continues to impress me!
I recently wrapped my car but not happy with how it turned out. So I ordered a similar wrap through Rvinyl and started to re-wrap my car. I've only done one section of the car. But I love the material that I ordered. It's very easy to handle. It applies with no issues. I can't wait to finish the rest of the car and plan to order more wrap material so I can wrap my truck next. Keep up the good work.
I love this color, it’s so striking!
I wrapped different console pieces and button covers. I also wrapped my door’s window control panels and the trim around the stereo.
What I really like about this color is how it’s so bright and brilliant in the light, and in dim lighting it’s very dark, almost black.
I recently ordered more and trimmed the edges of my front splitter and the rear diffuser fins, on a black car, it looks really nice!
Shipping was pretty quick, no complaints there. A far as the actual vinyl my only complaint is that it shrinks a little more than I expected in hot weather. Installation is great, it stretches good under a heat gun and doesn’t tear as easily as other vinyls. You can also reposition it a lot of times before it loses its adhesion which is really nice.
Wrapping my client's 2019 Ferrari 812 Superfast in 3M satin black vinyl was a game-changer. The material's high quality and ease of application made the process a joy. The sleek satin finish transformed the car's aesthetic, adding a touch of sophistication. No bubbles or imperfections were visible, showcasing the precision of the wrap. It endures daily wear impressively, and the bold black hue turns heads wherever I go. Overall, a stellar investment for elevating the look of this luxury vehicle.
First time wrapper, necessary because I couldn’t find an installer willing to wrap my motorcycle for less than $900. Installation was definitely a challenge, but the product is very good. Any small mistakes in the installation were my fault as an inexperienced installer, as the material was very forgiving. Couldn’t be happier with the overall results! Ended up buying a bit more in satin white aluminum to add cutouts.
This is the first wrap I've ever done and I'll say it's probably the only way I'll ever refinish a vehicle on my own again. It came out BEAUTIFUL and I don't have ideal conditions to work in. No garage so out in the yard is my shop. It is EASY to install once you get the hang of how it behaves on different surfaces and contours and once you get a feel for its stretch limits and all. I got better at it as I worked my way around the car. This is another advantage. You can stop when you have to and start again when you can. Unlike with painting. My only trouble besides my learning curve is how to wrap some of the deep recesses on the Fiero like the turn signals on the front and rear bumpers. I may try to color match the film with paint for those small areas. Of course the better the surface prep the better the finish. Mine was mostly loose and powdery original clear coat on the hood, roof and deck lid/wing and the tops of the fenders. You can see where I did a better or worse job at prep in those areas. I would have been happy if it came out a fifty footer but I LOVE it and it is a real attention getter.
Good quality wrap. Fast shipping. Packaged very secure. Car looks great.
Wrap the hood of my 2022 Camry. Turned out very good. Good quality 3 and wrap. Now I need to wrap the trunk. Good product and very fast shipping. Very solid packaging
