If you’re tired of your car looking like an eye sore with faded paint everywhere or the factory paint job is a nauseating color, then it’s time to get a professional paint job, but don’t stop there! Consider accenting that paint job with vinyl wrap or making your vehicle more work-friendly.
Types of Wraps
- Full-Body Wraps – These wraps are exactly what they sound like- it’s basically like a new paint job. (You can also use to it protect the paint job underneath!)
- Partial Wraps – These wraps are good if you already have a clean paint job, but you’d like to add a unique accent (like carbon fiber) to the wing mirrors, roof, or spoiler.
- Reflective Wrap – This is great to help your car stand-out at night, especially for service vehicles and motorcycles.
- Advertising – Get paid to drive your car around with advertising decals (or rep your own business and increase its awareness)!
But Wait… There’s More!
The uses of vinyl wrap don’t stop at the consumer level. If you own a fleet of vehicles, a boat, or an RV (maybe you tour the country with a group of people), then you can use vinyl wrap to stand out from the crowd.
- Uniformity across a fleet of vehicles is great for your employees and customers- this helps your employees find the vehicles quickly and your customers trust it’s you when you arrive.
- Boats are constantly being attacked by salt water, so vinyl wrap (with a waterproof seam tape) can help restore its original beauty and protect it for years to come.
- While an RV or tour bus can be wrapped as advertisement for your group. A simple wrap can be used to restore an old RV, while an artistic wrap can be used for artists and bands (you can even use decals of the band members).
The Wrap-Up
There are plenty of benefits of vinyl wrap for your car and one of the only drawbacks is that you might install it improperly, but you can mess up a paint job too! The key is to find a reputable and professional installer; since you’re saving on the overall cost of parts, you might as well splurge and get it done perfectly the first time. If you choose to do it yourself or a hire an amateur and they ruin it, then you should cut your losses and go to the nearest Sonoma County autobody shop and have professionals fix the mistake. Once your car is all fixed and looking good, ask them about adding a simple touch of vinyl to really make your car pop! (Don’t forget to mention who did made your car look great!)
