How it works

How a car wrap works

A wrap is a thin vinyl film laid over the paint, panel by panel, with its edges tucked in so it looks painted. Gloss, satin and matte finishes are all possible.

Your factory paint stays underneath. When you want a change, a wrap on good factory paint can come off without harming it.

The vinyl also takes the light scratches and the sun that would otherwise land on your paint, and if one panel is ever damaged, that panel can be wrapped again on its own.

What’s included

  • Full color change or partial wrap

Finishes

Which wrap finish is right for you?

A wrap can change the color, the finish or both. These are the three finishes owners choose most, and each comes in a wide range of colors to pick from.

  • Gloss

    Shines like fresh paint, the closest look to a factory color, and the easiest finish to keep clean.

  • Satin

    A soft sheen between gloss and matte that picks out the lines of the car without the mirror shine.

  • Matte

    No shine at all, for a flat, modern look. Washed by hand, it keeps an even finish.

Questions

Vinyl wrapping questions

Does a wrap damage the paint?

Not on good factory paint. The wrap sits on top and can come off later; repainted or damaged paint can lift, so we check it first.

How long does a wrap last?

It depends on the film and how the car is kept. We tell you what to expect when we quote.

Can I wrap just part of the car?

Yes. Roofs, mirrors, hoods and chrome trim are popular partial wraps.

How do I wash a wrapped car?

Hand wash it with a soft mitt, and keep pressure washers away from the edges.

How long is my car with you?

A full wrap takes longer than a partial one. We tell you when we quote.

What is a chrome delete?

The chrome trim around the windows, grille or badges is covered in black or another color of vinyl, for a cleaner look. It can come off later.
