If your vehicle has OEM standard paint then vehicle vinyl wrap acts as a protective layer without compromising the original paintwork of your car.

If the vehicle has stone chips or rust spots, or has had been resprayed, we cannot guarantee the vinyl wrapping material will be removed without damaging the paintwork.

This is varied, some cars require a few parts to be removed where as other cars would need a lot more parts removed before wrapping, for a seamless finish.
HOW DO I WASH MY CAR ONCE IT HAS BEEN WRAPPED?
We recommend that you avoid washing your vehicle for at least 5 days and hand wash only. Do not use products with acids and solvents as this will void warranty and decrease the life of the vehicle vinyl wrap. If you are taking your vehicle to a hand car wash ensure they spray the jet at a 45 degree angle, are at least 1.5 meters away from the vehicle and never point it directly at edges or corners of panels. Drive-Thru machine car washes are a big NO. If possible, to get the most out of your new wrap we recommend leaving it in a garage or shade when unattended. The more you look after the wrap, the longer it will last.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO WRAP A CAR?
This is dependent on the car and what you’re having wrapped. Generally wrapping a full car will take between 3 - 7 days to complete. A roof wrap can take 2 - 4 hours.
