A full wrap for a mid-size sedan typically requires 60–75 feet of vinyl. Your installer will measure your vehicle precisely.
The car is thoroughly washed and any existing damage, dents, or rust is repaired before wrapping.
The installer heats and stretches the vinyl over each panel, working out air bubbles and wrapping edges. Takes 3–5 days for a full car.
Avoid pressure washing for 72 hours. Hand wash only for the first 2 weeks. Use wrap-safe cleaning products.
