FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Will Vinyl Wrap protect my car from scratches?
How long does vinyl wrap last for?
Much like paint, if you leave your car out in the sun all day every day, the vinyl wrap can deteriorate within the first year after installation. If you look after the film by avoiding long UV exposure and maintaining it then you can get up to 8 years out of it.
Will vinyl wrap damage my paint?
No, genuine branded vinyl wrap in most cases will protect your paint from general wear and tear.
How will I know when the vinyl wrap has to be removed?
You will notice the film becomes quite faded and in some cases may begin to crack or flake. It is highly recommended to remove the film before the deterioration continues otherwise the removal process will become more tedious and time consuming.
How do I maintain my vinyl wrap?
It is recommended to keep the film washed and clean while only using PH neutral car wash products and avoid rough physical washing processes such as an automatic car wash.
What is PPF?
