Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get custom-designed wrap for my business?

Of course! Our in-house designers work with YOU to create a design that will work for your business. Our design process starts with a conversation about what you are looking for and what you like. We’ll then take those ideas and create a design. Before we print, we’ll make sure to check with you for approval and to make sure you love the final product.

Can I advertise my business with my wrap?

Yes! There is a lot of research that suggests that not only is vehicle wrapping extremely effective, it’s also affordable over the life of the wrap.

“Wrapped vehicles not only place messages in front of target consumers, they also provide the opportunity for direct customer contact through coupon distribution, sampling and other promotional tactics,” notes Stephen Freitas, spokesperson for the Outdoor Advertising Association of America (OAAA).

According to the Transportation Advertising Council, a division of the OAAA, vehicle advertising generates between 30,000-70,000 daily vehicular impressions.

Driving Revenues, a vehicle-advertising firm in Washington, broke those numbers down even further and compared vehicle wrapping head-on against other forms of advertising. Here is what they found a $20,000 investment buys:

  • Vehicle signage garners about 8.4 million impressions in a 12-month period.
  • Radio attracts 900,000 listeners in six weeks with 10 to 12 30-second spots.
  • Value Pak offers a reach of 600,000 with 100,000 addresses per drop and your client is just one of many advertisers included in the packet.
  • Direct mail reaches 20,000 names with one post card mailer.
  • Seven city buses get 600,000 impressions in two months.
  • Billboards get 700,000 impressions in one month.

How long does it last?

A vehicle wrap whether commercial or daily driver, is rated to last from 3-7 years. This is dependent on how the wrap is maintained, and installed. Just like paint, vinyl wrap needs to be properly maintained in order to achieve the best longevity.

Will it damage my paint?

There is always a risk when installing graphics on any painted surface. There is a slight possibility that paint can be damaged in the removal process, but we will do everything within our power to make sure that we reduce the risk of paint damage when removing old vinyl. One way to avoid paint damage is to have any old graphics removed once it is 5 years old, or once the vinyl shows signs of breaking down.

I have some damage to my vehicle; can you cover it up?

Within reason. We can cover small dents and dings, but they will typically be more prominent once we install a wrap. If you have dents or dings that have clear coat issues, or turned rusty then we recommend getting those fixed prior to graphics installation. Vinyl is only as good as the surface it sticks to. We do not offer any manufacturer or labor warranty on vehicles that have clear coat or paint issues.

How long will my vehicle be in the installation shop?

This depends on the type of graphics you’re getting installed and the time of year they are being installed. Most vehicles will need to be at our shop for at least 2 days, some will be needed for up to a week or more. Once the outside temperature drops below 60 degrees, we request the vehicle to stay longer so that vehicle can stay in our installation bay in the heat for extra time to cure. We do everything we can in order to avoid shocking the vinyl with cold weather. With outside temperatures above 75 the vinyl can continue to cure in the heat, at your residence. We do offer loaner vehicles in order to keep your inconvenience minimal.

Do you wrap anything other than vehicles?

Yes! We can wrap any surface that vinyl will adhere to, within reason. This includes painted or primed surfaces. Vinyl will not adhere to rough plastics

How long does it take to receive a design?

We do our best to complete your design as quickly as possible. Our turn around time averages between 1-2 weeks. A more accurate timeline will be discussed during the consultation process, prior to placing you on the design schedule.

Can I see a design prior to agreeing to get it installed?

We do require a deposit prior to designing all projects, in order for our designers to work efficiently. This process allows for the design team to prioritize their projects, and create an acceptable turnaround time for all clients. We do offer free design consultation, where we can show you similar projects or ideas that we can do, and to go over your custom vision.

Is there a warranty?

Yes, there is a 1-year limited manufacturer’s warranty. This includes premature fading and glue defects. We offer a limited labor warranty limited to the life of the vinyl. We will evaluate any case that comes back to us, and discuss a plan of action with the client.
