When deciding on a suitable vinyl wrap for your vehicle, there are many things to consider. But arguably, the most critical decision is what wrap material you will use. Metro Restyling suggests 3M vinyl wraps because they are the most resilient, flexible, and long-lasting vinyl available.
How long will 3M vinyl wrap last?
A properly installed vinyl wrap will typically last 3-5 years. However, some can last up to 7 years or longer and still look great (see product descriptions for specific durability and other specific specifications.) There are multiple ways to maintain your 3M vinyl wrap to maximize its longevity. The most important tip is to keep your vehicle wrap clean and polished. Use a soft fabric to polish your car and avoid solid chemical products. Be careful not to scrub the surface too vigorously, as this could result in material tears. If you spill anything on your car, clean it immediately to avoid damage. And lastly, intense exposure to sunlight can increase the chance of tearing and bleaching the color of the wrap.
Benefits of using 3M vinyl:
Price Benefits: Using 3M vinyl wraps is the best way to give your vehicle a brand-new appearance. There are many benefits of using vinyl products for your car compared to painting it, and the most significant benefit is its cost-effectiveness. Usually, a good paint job costs between $3,000 and $10,000, and a complete vehicle wrap typically costs much less. These wraps are adaptable and robust and allow you to save money.
Top quality vinyl: 3M vinyl wrap products have better quality and last longer than VVivid, Teckwrap, VinylFrog, and other Chinese wrap products. Many use cheaper calendered film that fades quicker, shrinks faster, and is of less quality than major brand products like 3M. Calendered-made films are made for signage applications. Many companies mislead the consumer by advertising calendered films as long-lasting, high-quality wrap vinyl films like 3M but at a lower price. Companies that sell calendered film give the illusion of high-quality vinyl wraps when they are not. Remember that some cool rainbow colors, ultra gloss colors, and cheaper chrome materials are not offered by 3M because these pigments do not pass quality control. 3M films are more consistent and have better quality control.
Excellent protection: Another reason car wraps are a great idea is that they protect your car's natural paint from sun damage, dents, debris, gravel, rust, dirt, and marks. All our vinyl acts like a shield to prolong the coating while giving your car an excellent style. Protecting yourself from damage means avoiding having to pay for repairs if you sustain scratches or dents.
Easily removed: 3M wraps can be easily removed, unlike getting a permeant paint job. If you are scared of damaging your car, or if you change your mind on the style of vinyl you would like, it is simple to remove without any damage. It is simple to remove without causing any harm if you are worried about damaging your car or if you decide you don't like the style you chose. For a skilled wrapper, the removal process takes about three hours. Using a professional will guarantee the best appearance following a removal.

Marketing benefits: Our vinyl wraps can also help market your business. Designing your wrap with your company's logos, website, decals, and information will help it stand out from the competition. Drive down the street with your new stunning vinyl wrap to advertise, or create a TikTok to gain traffic to your website using your new wrap. With colorful, eye-catching vinyl, you can capture the attention of anyone looking.
