FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is the cost of a vehicle vinyl wrap?

The price of a car wrap can vary based on the vehicle type, material used, location, and level of expertise. At Roller Wraps, our rates start at $2000 and are typically lower than those other shops charging up to $4000 for the same job—not because of reduced quality, but thanks to our low overhead costs. This enables us to pass the savings on to you while still delivering the top-quality, precise work you’d expect from a leading wrap shop.

Does a vinyl wrap damage your paint?

The condition of the vehicle's paint is a key factor in this situation. If the paint is in poor condition or has been previously redone, there's an increased risk of the clear coat peeling during wrap removal. For optimal results, we suggest preparing the surface carefully and sanding any problem areas as necessary.

How long does a car wrap last?

Premium films generally last between 3 and 5 years, whereas lower-cost films last around 2 years. However, how well you care for the wrap also plays a big role in its longevity. To maximize durability and get the best results, we strongly recommend adding a Ceramic Coating. This extra layer of protection not only extends the wrap’s lifespan but also simplifies maintenance.

How do you wash a wrapped car?

The best way to clean a car wrap is by hand washing. Use a soft cloth or sponge with a gentle, non-abrasive detergent and water. Ideally, wash your wrap at least once a week, especially during the summer. If you use a pressure washer, be cautious—keep the pressure low and hold the nozzle at least a foot away to prevent peeling at the edges. Avoid automated car washes, as they can damage the wrap or cause it to lift from the vehicle.

Can you wrap a car with scratches or dents?

Yes, but to achieve the best results when wrapping a vehicle, it’s recommended that the paint is in good condition. However, most vehicles that get vinyl wrapped have small imperfections like rock chips and scratches. These imperfections may still show through the wrap, but they will be almost unnoticeable. For optimal results, we suggest carefully preparing the surface and sanding any problem areas as necessary.

Are car wraps cheaper than paint?

Many people assume that car wraps are more expensive than paint jobs, often comparing a high-quality wrap installation to a budget paint job. However, a professional paint job typically costs much more than a high-quality wrap installation. A car wrap is also a great alternative if the vehicle is leased, you like switching up the look regularly, or you don’t plan to keep the car for long.
