When it comes to vehicle wraps, the quality of the materials used plays a critical role in the longevity and visual impact of the graphics. While there may be cheaper options available, we firmly believe in using only the highest grade products to ensure the best possible outcome for our customers. That’s why we exclusively rely on top-tier materials such as 3M™ films and vinyl, renowned for their exceptional quality and durability.
Our commitment to only the most superior results extends to our printing technology. We employ the latest state-of-the-art printing equipment available on the market, ensuring that our customers receive the clearest, most vibrant images without any banding issues. One of the cornerstones of our printing technology is the HP® Latex printer, recognized as one of the most advanced in the industry. With this cutting-edge printer, we can achieve unparalleled image quality, vibrant colors, and unmatched clarity. It is, without a doubt, the pinnacle of printing technology.
Printing graphics for vehicle wraps requires specialized knowledge and attention to detail. At Wraps Direct, we have a team of highly skilled professionals who excel in the art of wrap printing. Once you have approved your final vehicle wrap design, our production team springs into action. We employ adhesive vinyl panels, typically 54″ or 60″ in width, to print your custom wrap. The choice of panel size depends on the specific vehicle templates and the perfect fit for your vehicle.
To ensure long-lasting and vibrant graphics, we utilize high-quality latex inks and cast lamination. These elements are critical in maintaining the color consistency and durability of your wrap graphics over time. Our meticulous approach to printing guarantees that every detail of your design is faithfully replicated, resulting in a wrap that exceeds your expectations.
At Wraps Direct, we understand the importance of environmental responsibility in our industry. As a leading company in vehicle wraps and fleet graphics, we take pride in offering the most environmentally friendly printing technology available: latex printing. Our HP® latex printers enable us to provide our customers with true eco-friendly printed products. Not only does latex printing deliver exceptional color and clarity, but it also allows for seamless conformity of graphics to your vehicle’s contours, even around complex curves.
The choice of printer is a crucial factor in achieving high-quality vehicle wraps. There are several types of wide-format printers commonly used for vinyl printing, including solvent/eco-solvent, latex, and UV printers. Here at Wraps Direct, we have embraced the latest advancements in latex printing technology. We choose to exclusively use HP latex inks given that they ensure superior color vibrancy and longevity.
Third-party inks, on the other hand, are known to fade more quickly, compromising the overall quality and lifespan of the wrap. By utilizing 3M™ component matching systems, we ensure optimal compatibility between the vinyl wraps and the top-quality 3M™ laminates. This combination guarantees the highest standards of performance and durability, as evidenced by the extended warranty that covers all our printed graphics.
Latex printing technology represents the cutting edge in the world of vehicle wraps. Compared to solvent printers, latex printers employ less abrasive inks, resulting in a superior printing experience. Multiple fans and high-powered heaters are used in the latex printing process to cure the ink as it is applied to the vinyl. This unique curing method ensures that prints are 100% dry immediately after printing, eliminating the need for off-gassing. This advantage makes latex printers especially suitable for the vehicle wrap industry, as there is no delay caused by the off-gassing process.
Additionally, latex ink composition offers a natural flexibility that surpasses solvent/eco-solvent ink. This flexibility is particularly important for vinyl wrap applications that require conformity and stretching around curves. The supple feel and application of latex inks enable flawless integration of the wrap with complex curves, ensuring a visually appealing and professional finish. Moreover, the latex inks rest on top of the vinyl material, resulting in a uniform appearance, even when stretched around intricate contours.
Given the exceptional print quality and quick turnaround time, we strongly recommend selecting a printing shop that utilizes latex printers, such as Wraps Direct, for your vehicle wraps. The exceptional results achieved with latex printing technology eliminate the need for the typical 48-hour off-gassing period before laminating. This translates to a faster process, reducing downtime and allowing you to get back on the road with your wrapped vehicle sooner.
While solvent and eco-solvent printing were once the industry standard, these methods have significant drawbacks. These printers employ aggressive and odorous inks that saturate the vinyl, leading to extended drying times. Solvent ink permeates the material, which can compromise the adhesive and cause issues such as bubbling, peeling, or cracking. Premature lamination without sufficient off-gassing often results in subpar print quality and reduced adhesion. Waiting a minimum of 48 hours for proper off-gassing significantly delays the overall printing process, causing unnecessary inconvenience and downtime.
UV printing, while suitable for signage and window graphics, is not recommended for vehicle wraps. The ink’s curing process under UV lights makes it brittle when dry, increasing the risk of cracking when applied to curved surfaces. This can lead to unsightly and compromised wraps, particularly on areas such as hoods, roofs, and trunks.
By using top-of-the-line HP 800 printers, we maintain our commitment to providing superior graphics and wraps that not only catch the eye but also withstand the test of time. Our customers can trust that their vehicles will be transformed into mobile works of art with exceptional image quality and long-lasting color vibrancy.

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.
