Vehicle graphics or wrap is a decal or large vinyl graphic with an adhesive backing applied on the surface of a vehicle. It is used to change the way a vehicle looks on a temporary basis, as the wrap may be removed if necessary without altering the car’s original paintwork.

There are many levels of coverage from mirrors wraps, partial coverage or full wraps. As a custom shop we can design any amount of coverage to fit your needs.

The cost of wrapping a vehicle depends on a number of factors, such as the size of the wrap and type of vinyl used. Our experts can give you an idea of the cost for your custom work. Click here to submit your information for a quote request.

Not at all. Vehicle graphics, if a full wrap, can even protect your OEM paint. However, if your vehicle is already experiencing rust, paint chipping or clear coat peeling, then the wrap may pull off these imperfections when removed.

Our experienced designers can create a custom layout based on your actual vehicle template, branding elements and specific company message. If you have existing artwork, please provide vector (files ending in ai, eps or pdf), to utilize in your layout.

Vehicle wrap applications can be done in as little as 1-2 days, depending on the vehicle type, size and complexity of the wrap. When you schedule your drop off date we will let you know when to expect pick-up to be. Fleets may take longer if doing multiples at once.

Before dropping off your vehicle we ask that you wash it, with no wax. It is important that all vehicles for wrapping are free of oil, wax, dust, mud and other agents that may prevent the vinyl wrap from adhering properly to the vehicle surface, scratch the paint, or cause bubbling after the wrap is installed. We conduct a vehicle inspection before installation and improper cleaning may result in a void of the warranty.

Worry not! You can have the damaged pieces replaced, without the need to replace the whole wrap. For CMYK printed graphics, color matching may not be perfect. Please refer to our CMYK process for details.

For personal graphics you can choose to retain the wrap or remove it to return the car to its original state. Car wraps are completely removable and don’t damage the original paint, so your car’s resale value is retained. For commercial graphics, we suggest ALWAYS removing the existing graphics before selling a vehicle. You don’t want some competitor driving around in your graphics.

We have a variety of vinyl options specially designed for wrapping vehicles. For solid color wraps you can have a gloss, semi-gloss, matte, chrome, metallic, carbon fiber or brushed steel finish. When printing the options are endless.

Ceramic coatings are extremely durable vehicle protection systems. Depending on the coating used, they are suitable for use on paintwork, wheels, glass and plastic trim.

Coatings are carefully applied by certified applicators as a liquid, one panel at a time covering the exterior surfaces. The paintwork is firstly decontaminated and prepared to ensure the coating achieves a good bond to the paintwork.

We advise that every 12 months the vehicle is thoroughly decontaminated by the removal of any road tar, iron, tree sap and industrial fallout deposits that may have accumulated. Following that we will apply a sealant to rejuvenate the ceramic coating and enhance its hydrophobic properties.

Ceramic coatings need one day for application, but we ask that you allow an overnight to cure. When you schedule your drop off date, we will let you know when to expect pick-up to be.

The paint protection film is an extremely durable polyurethane-based film that is designed to protect against harmful road debris from damaging the clear coat and paintwork on your vehicle.

Most vehicle owners want to focus on the High Impact Areas of their vehicle for protection.

  • Hood
  • Bumpers
  • Fenders
  • Side Mirrors
  • A-pillars
  • Door Handles

We offer different packages with these high impact areas included, or mix-and-match to create your own custom protection!

The cost of protecting a vehicle depends on a number of factors, such as the size of the area and complexity of the vehicle. Our experts can give you an idea of the cost for your custom work. Click here to submit your information for a quote request.

Choosing between the two is like comparing apples to oranges. For high-impact protection like rock chips and paint swirls, we recommend paint protection film. For enhancing the gloss and ease of washing we recommend a ceramic coating. Ideally, we would pair the two services for the ultimate protection.

If a piece of debris has penetrated all the way through the clear coat on the film, it will not self-heal. The only way to fix this would be to have the piece of film replaced. The self-healing clear coat of PPF is designed to repair itself from swirl marks and light scratches from car washes.

While the edge of the film can be seen from certain angles, people generally do not notice it unless they are looking for it. However, on white or lighter colored cars, or if the car is dirty, it can become more noticeable. We advise to always do a full hood install to eliminate this issue.

You can install graphics on top of existing PPF. If applying PPF first and then installing graphics on top in the same visit, please allow drying time.
