Automotive Applications 3M Company meets another important automotive need with the introduction of DI-NOC™ Automotive Finishes. DI-NOC™ finishes simulate a variety of natural and synthetic materials, including carbon fiber, wood, metal, and just about everything else. It is self-adhering and can be applied to the flat and curved surfaces, interior and exterior of an automobile. DI-NOC™ finishes feature 3M's Comply™ adhesive to help ensure a bubble-free installation.
Carbon Fiber If you’re looking for that carbon fiber after market look, then look no further. 3M Company manufactures a carbon fiber DI-NOC™ finish that looks like the real thing but is more versatile and less expensive. Installed on hoods, trunks, spoilers, side view mirrors, and interior plastic, DI-NOC™ finishes provide that sporty aftermarket look to any car.
Wood Grain DI-NOC™ Automotive Finishes were first introduced to the automotive world more than fifty years ago for car manufacturers looking to achieve the "woody" look without using real wood. Over time it has been used on Jeep Cherokees and Wagoneers, Buick Roadmasters, and Chrysler PT Cruisers, just to name a few. It is perfect for the enthusiast who is restoring a station wagon or SUV and wants the OEM look.
Exterior Applications If you are looking for that OEM look for your latest restoration, please view the different finishes in our gallery and then order sample swatches through our online store. (Anything that adheres to a car, such as a bumper sticker or vinyl logo, can damage your car's paint in the event of removal. Older paint is more susceptible to damage while new paint that has cured is less susceptible.)
Interior Applications You can either purchase DI-NOC™ finishes to restore the interior of your project car yourself or you can send us your part(s) and we will install it for you. If you want to try installation yourself, simply view the different finishes in our gallery and then order sample swatches through our online store.
