5 Myths About Vinyl Wraps Debunked

Vinyl wraps are popular forms of decorations on many cars across the United States. Not only are they a great way for a vehicle owner to show off their creativity, but it is also a great solution for car owners that just can’t make up their minds about how their vehicle should look.As with all popular trends there are several myths about vinyl wraps that need to be debunked. Here are our top five myths about vinyl wraps that are simply, not true.

1. Vinyl on Your Vehicle Will Damage the Paint Job Underneath

We can see why this can be a myth. Most people would be quick to believe that something like an adhesive on a vehicle would eventually ruin the paint underneath when it is removed. Actually, this is the complete opposite effect wraps have on vehicles.The vinyl wrap should be seen as a cover for the paint that blocks out:

• The sun

• Adverse weather

• Small Scratches

• Rocks and Debris

If installed correctly, a vinyl wrap will have your car paint looking the same that it did the day the wrap was placed.

2. Vinyl Wraps Are So Expensive

Yes, vinyl wraps aren’t the most inexpensive form of changing the look of a vehicle, but when you take a look at the cost of a new paint job, vinyl wraps is definitely the easier pill to swallow when it comes to price. Some vinyl wrap jobs can cost vehicle owners around $2,000, where a paint job would cost at least five times that amount.

3. Your Vinyl Car Wrap Will Not Last Very Long

With the proper maintenance and care, your vinyl car wary can last you for up to seven years. The lifespan of the wrap really depends on your location, the amount of use that your car gets, and the type of vinyl that you are using.

4. Once it’s on Your Car, you are Stuck With it.

This Is a completely false assumption. Sure, your car wrap can last for years to come, but that by no means leaves you stuck with a single look for that long. The beauty of car wraps is that they are entirely customizable and can be removed safely by a professional on your command.If you ever grow tired of your vehicle wrap’s look, get creative and start to think about where your look can go next.

5. Vinyl Wrap Advertising is a Waste of Money

Mobile billboard advertising is a great way for small businesses to get the word out on their goods. If you can’t afford a mobile billboard, then wrapping your company vehicle with your contact information is a great, affordable way to get your message across town.
