Do you need to prepare your car before getting it vinyl wrapped?

Yes, its easy there are just a few things you need to consider before getting your vehicle wrapped. 

A Normal Wash 

All we ask is that you give it a quick, normal wash that doesn’t need to be detailed. In fact, we prefer it not to detail it because they’ll spray silicon products all over it, which we have to then take off. So just a normal car wash one or two days prior. 

A Dry Vehicle

Don’t do it on the morning of the vinyl wrap, because we can’t always work with a wet car, particularly with a full wrap.

We need the car to be perfectly dry. 

We understand that if it rains on your way to get the wrap, there’s nothing you can do about it. 

We’ll just deal with it when you arrive.

Wash the day before 

Wash your vehicle the day prior to getting a vehicle wrap.

Is there anything else you need to do before getting a vehicle wrapped?

That’s it, just make sure it is clean and dry, and the rest will get done for you.

How long does it normally take for a vehicle to get vinyl wrapped?

A simple graphics will take a day to complete. Basic graphics is half a day. Or sometimes, if the stickers already prepared and waiting, then you can just drive in. We’ll stick it on whilst you wait. It’d be half an hour to an hour at max.

A half wrap is one to two days, generally, and a full wrap three to four days usually. Sometimes five if it’s a complex design and wrap.
