What Is Car Wrapping? 

Car wrapping is rising in popularity and offers drivers an appealing alternative to traditional paint jobs but what is it and why is it so popular?

Car Wrapping 101​

When you wrap a car you cover its exterior in a special vinyl film. This film can have a variety of colours and designs, allowing you to customise the appearance of your vehicle in any way you like without worrying about it being permanent.

Adding a Layer of Protection​

Car wrapping makes your exterior stand out but it also gives your car’s original paint job an additional layer of defence because the vinyl film protects it from small scratches, sun damage and debris from your travels. This assists in preserving your vehicle’s resale value if you’d like to sell it later on.

Affordable, Fast and Eye Catching​

The versatility and adaptability of car wrapping means it has some valuable benefits. Not only is it quick to apply but it is also often more affordable than applying a new paint job. It also offers a variety of matte, gloss, satin and textured finishes to help your ride stand out on the road. The best part? The vinyl film can be removed and replaced when it's time for a new look. 

Branding Potential

Car wrapping is very customisable and accessible. Knowing this, many companies use car wrapping as a relatively inexpensive way to brand their vehicles with different graphics and designs, promoting their services to all other road users.

Go to the Professionals​

Although car wrapping is very accessible, it doesn’t mean that it can be applied easily at home. If you are considering wrapping your car, be sure to go to a professional. They will apply your wrap correctly and avoid leaving any bubbles under the surface or peeling edges.
