Vehicle Paint Job: Is it Better Than Vinyl Wrap?

Vehicle wraps are gaining traction every year. This means the materials are evolving and the options are growing. This has brought us to the point where we are able to color change an entire vehicle. Vehicles wraps can be designed quickly and easily.

The high-quality printing method allows you to design anything that you can dream and think of and have it turn out exactly as you want- the choice is yours. Just like going down to a paint shop and having the vehicle color changed from Dark Blue to Pearl White Metallic.

The best part of wrapping your vehicle is that you can redesign and switch out the entire wrap or just parts of it any time that you like. In addition to that, you can even change your company’s message image seasonally if you like- you can’t do that with paint jobs.

Vinyl vehicle wraps can do more than just improve your car’s looks. I can also extend the life of the vehicle by protecting exterior facades from numerous environmental hazards that can threaten your hull if you don’t have a wrap. Some of these include:

• Falling branches, and other harmful debris
• Splashing chemicals from puddles on the road
• Wind-blown dust and small rocks
• Simple hazards such as jacket button or stray keys from people walking by vandals who are envious of your gorgeous ride.

Luxury Vehicles Are Welcomed

High end cars can benefit greatly from this kind of job. Now, you can change the car’s color every couple of years to make it your own. Then when you are done just take it off and trade in a vehicle that is the factory color- it’s as simple as that.

Another great thing about wrapping is that the color stays consistent through the entire vehicle. Achieving this is hard with pearl and metallic paints but doable.  Before you decide to protect your car with a vinyl wrap, you need to get exact measurements of its dimensions. Typically, this means working with a professional who knows how to work with the distinct shape of a luxury car, truck, motorcycle, boat, or other vehicle.

Get Your Vehicle Ready

Now that you have decided to go through with it, make sure to pre-clean your vehicle that way there is a guarantee that there won’t be any dust or debris to interfere with your protective wrap. If you skip this process, you will have difficulty getting your wrap to adhere to your vehicle correctly. Elements such as air pressure and mixtures can drastically change the outcome of the final product.

You should also plan for us to keep your vehicle for a few days. We have to make sure that no sticker will be placed over wax, tar, or anything but the hull. Installation is done simply by laying the stickers down with exact care while squeezing out any air bubbles. After that, we focus on fine tuning and finishing the fit with a process that includes exact trimming, sun-drying, and double checking all our work.

 Our process is the same as a paint job. The vehicle is taken down to make sure nothing is cut on the vehicle. This also allows all the parts that are removed to be bolted back on to ensure that the wrap is locked down.

The vertical facing panels will last a couple of years, if in the direct sun consistently. The new paint vinyl materials are considered a 9 year application, although we do lose a bit for our extreme heat. The great thing is that if you start to notice anything you don’t like you can just replace those panels, and the colors will be the same. For ex: get in a sand storm, or pitting in the material, or scratch from a shopping cart or a bicycle. No need to blend the new paint into other panels of the vehicle. Just replace the one that gets damaged.
