What are you trying to solve?
Pick the door that fits. Each one explains the problem in plain language, shows the fix, and tells you what to look for before you buy — from anyone.
Same sealant. Two installs. Only one is a system.
The industry shortcut runs a bead of sealant over the factory gasket — one bond surface, the weakest one. Epic removes the gasket, seats the glass on cork wedges, applies the film, and tools structural silicone sealant into the open channel so film, glass and frame become one load-bearing unit. Three surfaces. A mechanical interlock. That is why a district that tested everyone chose Epic.
Pick a film. Watch only the glass change.
A real photo, re-rendered from each film’s published optics — only the glass changes. Three scenes here; the full visualizer adds frost, graphics, DI-NOC and security film.
Non-metallic, multi-layer optical film: rejects up to 97% of infrared heat with low reflectivity and no signal interference. Five shades.
Drag the handle on the photo to compare.
Rendering is computed from the film’s published optical values applied only to the glass in each photo (clear-glass baseline: 88% VLT, 8% exterior reflectance). Real appearance varies with glass type, sun angle and shade — we put real samples on your real glass before you decide.
Answer three questions. Get the film.
Most people don’t need a catalog — they need someone to say “this one, and here’s why.” That is what the finder does. Then download the spec card and, if you want, we’ll confirm it on your glass.
Three questions. One answer.
No catalog, no jargon. Tell us the situation and we’ll point you to the right 3M film — and tell you why.
They tested everyone. Then they chose Epic.
A district serving 53,000+ students across 89 campuses ran a rigorous field evaluation of competing security films and installation methods. Epic’s 3M S2400 attached with the Epic Method outperformed the alternatives — and the district awarded Epic every campus.
Read the case study“When lives are at stake, there is no room for compromise.”
— Kelly Eder, President & Owner
Founded by two parents who saw a bad install at their kids’ school.
In 2018 Kelly and Chris Eder walked into their children’s Texas elementary school and noticed the security film in the vestibule was installed wrong — film that was supposed to protect students and would have failed under impact. They couldn’t let it go. They met with 3M, re-entered the industry, and built Epic around one commitment: do it right, every time.
It wasn’t a cold start. Chris invented the first security film attachment system for bomb-blast mitigation in the mid-1990s, at a prior company — the approach that became the federal standard after 9/11. Kelly — Dr. Kelly Eder, DNAP, CRNA, holder of a Doctor of Nurse Anesthesia Practice with more than two decades in the operating room and the company’s 100% owner — brought a profession’s definition of “done right” to a trade that didn’t have one. That is why Epic has earned an award from 3M every year since its first year in business, has been 3M Dealer of the Year multiple years, and is the largest 3M window film dealer in the nation.
