What is the difference between 3M 2080 and 1080?

The Wrap Film Series 2080 is 3M's successor to the 1080 series. Per 3M's own product page, gloss and high-gloss 2080 films ship with a removable protective film layer that the 1080 series did not have. The colour range carried over and grew.

How long does a 3M 2080 wrap last?

3M publishes expected performance and warranty periods for the 2080 series in its own product bulletin, and the figures differ by finish and by vertical versus horizontal surfaces — so the honest answer is to check 3M's bulletin for the exact film you are considering. Specced does not test films; we show you the colour on your car.

This visualizer runs all 105 3M films in the Specced catalogue on a photo of your own car. One product line is covered: 2080. A wrap is a colored vinyl film applied over the car's existing paint, so the sheen comes with the film rather than being a separate choice. The render comes back on your own bodywork, in your own light — which is the part a swatch chart cannot show you.
