Okay so my cars finally wrapped to a gloss red wrap! I was looking online and it told me that maintainence is everything for vinyl wraps however it's a lot easier if you have a garage. I don't have a garage for another 2 months, so it'll be outside all the time. It's starting to get sunny here but it's still raining a bit. How do I take care of this? Online said regular washes help, but what products can I use? I'm a beginner so I would like all the details.

 

I will ask the guys at my shop today in regards to your questions and will have answers for you later on. Also I'd suggest getting a car cover for the time being

 

Sounds good but car cover tent everything is a no go, it will be constantly outside for at least 2 months. Hopefully that doesn't ruin it. So I wanna do everything I can to protect it

 

I will find out the answers to your questions by professionals who deal with vinyl wrap on daily basis and will get back to you when I'm finished with work and after I pick up my car. Keep an eye out

 

This is what Zach from Detailed Image recommended. Seems like regular hand washes, sealants, and keeping it out of the sun are the best preventive measures.

 

Curious as to how much it cost to wrap the entire vehicle... Pm me if you don't mind..

 

PM sent...

 

Keep it out of the sun? It's a car. I didn't realize vinyl wraps were so fussy, or is it just brightly-colored vinyl wraps that need to be kept in the shade?

 

Also here's a quick search I did for you with places in your area...

I think it's the fact that the adhesive and color deteriorates faster than paint, since it doesn't exactly have a clearcoat protecting it. If anything it'd be the darker shades that take more beating since black cars absorb more light.

 

OP, post a pic or two of this wrap you just got, would be nice to see the finished result.

 

 

Looks nice!
