Can I Vinyl Wrap My Car Myself?

Feb 20, 2023

Absolutely! Vinyl car wrap can dramatically change the look of your vehicle, but it only requires a few basic tools, a clean work area, and a patient approach.

Can I put my wrapped car through a car wash?

Hand washing is best for vinyl wraps, but brushless or touchless car washes can be just as safe. You can even use a pressure washer if you’re gentle.

Will car wrap damage my car’s paint?

Actually, car wrap can protect your paint because it blocks damaging ultraviolet light. When you remove it, the original finish will be intact.

How long does vinyl wrap last?

Depending on the quality of the wrap, type of vinyl wrap, care taken during installing, care after installation, and environmental factors, car wraps can last from three to five years.

Is there anything you can’t wrap?

Vinyl car wrap sticks best to smooth factory paints and smooth rigid plastic surfaces. It won’t bond well, if at all, to poor paint jobs, orange peel, deep scratches, gouges, rust, chipped paint, flaking paint, textured surfaces, rubber, ABS plastics, porous or spongy surfaces.
