What if I just repainted my vehicle?
It is always recommended to seek professional help when repainting your vehicle. Please allow up to 2 weeks for drying and off-gassing before wrapping your vehicle. Otherwise you may experience paint failure.
HOW SHOULD I CARE FOR MY VEHICLE WRAP?
- Wash your vehicle regularly. Dust or residue left on may be more difficult to remove during cleaning.
- Brush type car washes are not recommended. These can cause lifting, peeling and chipping. Brush-less car washes are acceptable but hand washing is best.
- Never use an ice scrapper on window film and avoid using rear wipers and defrost on perforated window film. This could reduce the lifespan of these graphics.
