Enhance privacy without sacrificing screen clarity with the 3M Gold Privacy Filter designed for a 19.5-inch, 16:9 display. The GF195W9B Gold Privacy Filter delivers nearly 20% higher clarity than 3M Black Privacy Filters, so you get a brighter, more vivid viewing experience while keeping your sensitive information safer from prying eyes. This filter is more than just a privacy shield; it’s a stylish statement for modern workspaces that demand both security and excellence in visual performance. The gold, glossy finish creates a striking look on your monitor, while its reversible design lets you switch to a sleek, glossy black appearance whenever you want a more understated look. This combination of privacy technology and distinctive aesthetics makes the 3M Gold Privacy Filter a standout choice for executives, professionals, and teams who value both form and function.

With this privacy filter, you can work with confidence in open-plan offices, shared spaces, or crowded environments where confidential information might be exposed to side viewers. The Gold Privacy Filter uses 3M’s world-class privacy technology to obscure what’s on your screen from off-angle views. From side angles, the display appears as a vibrant, metallic shield, helping to keep sensitive emails, financial data, and strategic plans out of sight. At the same time, developers, designers, or teammates viewing the screen head-on will enjoy bright, clear, and accurate images thanks to the filter’s high-clarity construction. This balance of privacy and color fidelity is particularly important for professionals who rely on precise color representation and sharp details for design work, presentations, and data analysis.

Beyond privacy and clarity, the GF195W9B is built for everyday reliability. The material and construction are engineered to resist smudges and fingerprints, while the glossy finish enhances the overall visual appeal of your setup. The gold glass-like sheen is not only visually striking—it’s a durable, easy-to-clean surface designed to stay pristine even in busy work environments. The filter’s versatility makes it suitable for conference rooms, hot-desking environments, and any workspace where both privacy and a touch of contemporary style matter. Whether you’re protecting confidential client information, sensitive project data, or personal details, this filter provides a practical, elegant solution for safeguarding information while maintaining a high-quality viewing experience.
