Vinyl Wraps
A full or partial color change in finishes paint can't produce — satin, matte, color-shift, brushed metal, carbon, printed graphics. Reversible, repairable panel by panel, and far less than a quality respray.
What it is
Cast vinyl, conformed to every curve on the car
Automotive wrap vinyl is a thin, highly conformable film with air-release adhesive. Heated and stretched into the body's shape, then tucked into panel gaps and around edges, it covers the paint completely without a single drop of spray.
Done properly, the car is partly disassembled first — handles, badges, lights, trim — so the film wraps around edges instead of stopping at them. That's the difference between a wrap that lasts years and one that lifts in a car wash.

Coverage
Full car, or just the parts that need it
Full wrap
Every painted panel changes color. Door jambs can be included or left factory — leaving them is standard and keeps the cost down; including them is what makes a wrap read as paint when the doors are open.
Partial panel
Roof, hood, mirrors, spoiler, pillars, lower accents, racing stripes or a two-tone split. The most common upgrade is a gloss-black roof and mirror caps on a light-colored car.
Commercial
Printed graphics, logos, contact details and fleet liveries. A van parked outside a job site is advertising that gets paid for once. Supply us artwork or a rough brief.
Benefits
What a wrap gives you that paint doesn't
-
Finish
Looks that don't exist in paint
Satin, matte, brushed aluminum, forged carbon, chrome, color-shift, textured and printed. Some of these are impossible to spray, and the ones that aren't are ruinously expensive and nearly impossible to repair.
-
Cost
Well under a quality respray
A proper color-change paint job means strip-down, prep, booth time, jambs and a lot of labor. A wrap delivers the visual result for a fraction of it, and it doesn't take the car off the road for weeks.
-
Protect
The paint underneath stops aging
While it's on, the vinyl takes the UV, the light abrasion and the washing. Cars come out from under a wrap with paint in noticeably better condition than the rest of their year would suggest.
-
Reversible
Put it back to stock whenever you want
Peel it off for resale, for lease return, or just because you're over the color. The factory paint is still the factory paint.
-
Repair
Damage is one panel, not a blend
Scuff a fender and that panel gets rewrapped. Paint has to be blended into the adjacent panels to match, which costs more and is still detectable on metallics.
-
History
No paintwork on the record
A respray shows up on a paint-depth gauge and raises an obvious question for any careful buyer: what was being covered? A wrap leaves no trace at all.
-
Scope
Change a little or everything
You don't have to commit to the whole car. A black roof, wrapped mirrors or a hood accent is an afternoon and a modest bill, and it's the single best-value styling change on most cars.
-
Speed
Days, not weeks
A full wrap is typically a matter of days with the car back to you in the same week. Paint ties it up far longer, and the result can't be undone if you don't like it.
-
Business
A vehicle that sells for you while it's parked
Printed commercial wraps are one of the lowest cost-per-impression advertising formats there is, and the cost is a one-off rather than a monthly spend.
-
Try it
It's not a life sentence
You can run a color for three years, remove it, and do something completely different. Very few decisions about a car are that low-stakes.
Finishes
A starting point, not the catalog
There are hundreds of films across the major manufacturers. Bring a reference photo and we'll source samples.
- Gloss black
- Satin grey
- Matte black
- Satin chrome
- Forged carbon
- Brushed metal
- Color shift
- Gloss burnt orange
What a wrap will not do
- It won't stop rock chips. At roughly 3.5 mil it's cosmetic coverage, not impact protection. If chips are the concern, that's PPF — or Color PPF if you want both in one film.
- It won't hide bad paint. Vinyl needs sound paint to bond to. Rust, peeling clear coat, deep scratches and previous resprays can all telegraph through, and failing paint can lift when the film comes off.
- It won't last forever. Expect roughly 3–5 years depending on film, color, sun exposure and how it's washed. A garage-kept car at the top of that range, a roof baking in a lot all summer at the bottom.
- It won't survive a bad wash. Hand wash it. Automatic brushes and a close-range pressure washer are how wraps get lifted edges.
