Vehicle wrapping is a popular alternative to respraying which offers more protection, less commitment and more customisable options. It is also a much less expensive option than respraying, which makes it very popular.
Vehicle wrapping allows you to customise your vehicle in a wide range of colours and finishes and give your car a makeover without damaging the paint underneath.
It also works at protecting the paint as it acts as a layer between the paint job and anything which may chip or scratch it.
Vinyl installation is relatively straightforward and it can be professionally fitted in a matter of hours if you go to something with the risk skills, but how easy is it to remove?
The answer is very. Vehicle wrapping can be removed just as quickly as it is fitted and as long as you have the right tools, it is a very straightforward process.
However, there is still room for error therefore it is always recommended you visit a professional to install and remove your wrapping as they will be less likely to damage the vehicle in the process.
Using a heat gun to warm up the vinyl wrapping and starting by peeling from the edges, the wrap should easily come away from the paint in a clean peal.
Using a wet sponge can help to lift the wrap without causing damage to the paint and can also speed up the process by acting as lubrication.
Vinyl can be removed piece by piece or on one clean sheet, however, you should never try and force it. if it feels stuck, apply more heat and water and remember to be gentle.
Any adhesive residue which is left behind can be removed with a remover or with a strong percentage of rubbing alcohol.
