Noob's Guide to Car Wraps!

Wrap vs. Paint, is now a common question every car enthusiast is faced with when choosing a new color. However, is wrapping really for you? Or are you better off with your factory finish? Here in this video, I'll discuss Everything A Beginner Needs to Know About Car Vinyl Wraps!

*Note*: This video DOESN'T TEACH WRAPPING, rather it explains the "Concept of Vinyl Wraps" to someone who literally has no idea what a car wrap is and how it compares to paint.

The Number one mistake I see beginners obsess over is the Finish!
Whether it's Gloss, Satin, Matte, or Metallic, none of that matters if the material and brand isn't reputable! Even more so, if the application wasn't well done, than it'll just peel off anyway!

Just like with buying cars, choosing a wrap color shouldn't be "Love at first sight". Considering how temporary Vinyl Wraps already are and also considering the few thousand you'll be spending on it, you'll definitely be disappointed if you got something that lasted way shorter than you expected!!

So please research material, then source a local shop reputable enough to install it. If you're wrapping your own car for the first time ever, buy some spare material. Expect to redo some pieces and expect your wrap to not be perfect the first time around and peel after just a short year. You'll get better over time and ultimately, the biggest takeaway from this experience is that Wrapping should not be evaluated as an EQUAL to paint because it simply is not!
