What is a Car Wrap?
A vehicle wrap is a mobile billboard that has been digitally printed. Car Salon Designers will collaborate with you to create your advertisement wrap, which will then either be printed or cut out of vinyl. We provide beautiful full-color vinyl wraps with eye-catching graphics. After designing your wrap with graphic design software, we will install the vinyl film on your vehicle.

Are Vehicle Wraps Effective?
Vehicle graphics may not be the first thing that comes to mind when you think of marketing techniques. However, based on the statistics below, you may want to give car wrapping more thought.
- In the US today, “individual vehicle advertising generates between 30,000-70,000 daily vehicular impressions,” according to ARD Ventures.
- “Mobile advertising generates 2.5 times more attention than a static billboard,” says Perception Research.
- “Messages on fleet wraps have a 97% recall rate,” RYP & Becker Group indicates.
Based on these metrics, it’s easy to see why small business owners might prefer vehicle wraps to more traditional forms of advertising.

This mobile marketing wrap has a lifespan of up to ten years and is simple to remove in the future with no residue left behind.
Aren't wraps intended for big corporations with large fleets of vehicles?
Taking advantage of these advertisement wraps will legitimize your small business.
Customers in your area should be introduced to your brand and logo. When small business owners use vehicle wraps, they are on the same playing field as companies with large enough fleets.
There is a common misconception that vinyl car wraps are only for companies with large vehicle fleets.
This is not true. Even if your company does not own vehicles, you can lease a truck or van to advertise your company’s information.
Wrap advertising services are now available through companies that take advantage of the gig economy. Sites like Wrapify, for example, allow drivers to earn money by wrapping their cars on behalf of third-party businesses like yours.
How do vehicle wraps compare to other forms of advertising?
Wrap advertising is classified as “out of home” advertising by the Outdoor Advertising Association of America. According to the agency, vehicle advertising has the potential to be the most effective form of out-of-home advertising, reaching more consumers at a lower cost per thousand impressions than any other form of advertising.
On average, wrap advertising costs as little as four cents per thousand impressions.
This is significantly less than the cost of other forms of advertising. Outdoor signs, for example, are estimated to cost $3.56 per thousand impressions, while newspaper ads are estimated to cost $19.70 per thousand impressions. Wrap advertising isn't as cheap as online advertising, but it's more effective for local businesses.

How much does it usually cost to wrap your car?
Car Wraps can start as low as $2000 for a small two-door, such as a Fiat 500. A larger coupe, like a Chevy Camaro or a Ford Mustang, and smaller SUVs, trucks, and vans start at around $3500. Depending on the size of the vehicle, design time involved prices may vary.
Is wrapping a car worth it?
A vinyl wrap is the preferred method of vehicle advertising since it is less expensive than a custom paint job and provides much more design and finish options. Wraps have become the preferred form of “repainting” for private vehicle owners, thanks to their low costs when compared to a new paint job.
How much does a matte black car wrap cost?
If you’re curious how much it costs to wrap a car in 3M 2080 matte black, the answer is that it depends on where you live & what you drive. A regular sedan for example usually costs around $3,500 CAD, and larger vehicles can cost even more.
Does wrapping a car decrease its value?
The resale value of a wrapped car is significantly higher than that of a repainted vehicle. The explanation for this is that the wrapper can be removed without causing any harm to the vehicle. The value of your car is higher because the wrap protects the paint and it still looks like the day it was wrapped.
How long does it take to vinyl wrap a car?
Professionals would take 2 to 3 days to wrap the film and allow it to rest (12 hours). Allow 3-4 full days for DIYers who are working alone or with limited assistance. Depending on the size and complexity of the vehicle, two people will complete the task in 1.5-2 days.
How long do car wraps last?
Wraps that are applied to vehicles that are lightly used often will last 7 – 10 years when using a premium wrap vinyl such as 3M or Avery. A vehicle wrap’s average lifetime is approximately five years when heavily used on a vehicle such as a work truck. The installation process is another aspect that can greatly affect wraps’ longevity.
Can you wrap a car with dents?
If the area you want to wrap has a dent or even big scratches, it’s best to patch those first before adding a wrap. And if the vinyl adheres to a scratched surface, the damaged region is likely to stand out more when a wrap is applied on top of it.
How do you wash car wraps?
You may use an automatic brushless car wash to wash your wrapped vehicle, but hand washing is better and more thorough. Brush car washes can be too harsh on the film, causing it to degrade and peel, as well as lifted edges. Most wraps should be secure if a car wash uses water spray rather than brushes.
How long does 3M vinyl wrap last?
The expected performance life—that is, the length of time the 3M wrap should look good and stay adhered is 7 – 10 years if properly maintained.
Does vinyl wrap fade?
Is It Going to Fade? No way! Wraps of high quality can maintain their colour for the length of their use. With a high-quality wrap, high temperatures and UV rays aren’t a problem.
