We ask that any vehicles being dropped off are washed within 24-48 hours prior to drop off. This ensures our ability to complete your job in a timely manner. Any vehicle that arrives in a condition that we deem should be cleaned will have a cleaning fee assessed ($85/hour). Drop-off dates are discussed during scheduling and we ask that you do your best to arrive on the discussed date.

On average, the design process can take 7-14 business days. Once the design is completed, production will begin and can take up to 48 hours to fulfill the order. After production is complete, your wrap will be scheduled for installation which can take 3-5 days to complete (on average). The entire process can vary depending on the exact type of wrap product being purchased. For more detailed information on your specific needs, please reach out to your Sales Representative.

All wrap products are created digitally which allows us to reprint and install any section of the graphics that may be damaged on your vehicle. We save all client artwork in the event that it ever needs to be reprinted. Oftentimes this is even covered by your insurance should you get into an accident. Please reach out to your insurance provider to learn more on coverage.

If all manufacturer procedures are followed, the answer is no. The paint under the wrap is protected from the harsh UV rays of the sun, exposure to the elements, and minor scratches. Think of it as driving around with the world’s tightest car cover. Rest assured knowing that with Wraps Direct, we will only select the best-of-the-best installation professionals that are certified by the product manufacturers that we use to ensure best practices and complete customer satisfaction 100% of the time.

Yes. We recommend that you bring your vehicle to us or a wrap shop that is knowledgeable about the wrap removal process. Removing a wrap requires a large amount of heat and various tools, such as torches and heat guns. To avoid damage to your vehicle and injury to yourself, it is recommended that you pay a professional to remove the wrap.

Generally, a wrap will last 5 years depending on the care of the vehicle and environments that it is exposed to. We use industry standard known and trusted films and laminate; the manufacturer of the material estimates the durability of the wrap to last 5 years on vertical surfaces. We recommend that you re-wrap your vehicle in 3 years to allow the wrap to be removed with ease. Washing the vehicle on a regular basis will prolong the life of the wrap. We recommend that vehicle wraps be hand washed as some pressure washers and automatic car wash machines can damage the wrap.

A vehicle wrap provides maximum exposure for your business and brings it to life with eye-catching crystal clear graphics. With a vehicle wrap, the amount of color or creativity you want is never limited. We do provide cut vinyl; however, a vehicle wrap lasts much longer than cut vinyl, and protects your paint from the harsh rays of the sun. Often when you remove cut vinyl the lines from it will still be visible on the vehicle due to fading of the paint. A vehicle wrap is better than paint because it is more cost effective, and can be changed if your company’s details change. It can also be easily removed should you decide to sell your vehicle.

Wraps Direct can wrap cars, trucks, boats, helmets, 18 wheelers, car haulers, race cars, concept cars, tour buses, trailers, cargo vans, box trucks, SUVs, shipping containers, walls, windows, store-fronts, golf carts, vending machines, even buildings! You name it and we can wrap it. If you have something you need wrapped and we have NOT wrapped it before we are thrilled to have the opportunity to pioneer new wrap styles.

Wraps are priced by the square foot. A full wrap on a vehicle can range from $1,000 to $5,000. That’s much less than the cost of having a billboard that you must rent every month or a tv/radio ad that you pay for monthly. You buy a wrap one time and it pays for itself over the span of three years or more. To get an accurate price on your vehicle, click to Request a Quote.
