Wrap Care Guide

Simple care keeps your wrap looking new for years. Here’s how to wash it, what to avoid, and when to call us.

How to Wash Your Wrap

Hand wash is best. Use a mild automotive soap, a soft wash mitt, and plenty of water.
Rinse first. Hose off loose dirt before touching the surface — grit is what scratches.
Wash top to bottom in straight lines, rinsing the mitt often.
Dry with microfiber. A clean microfiber towel or air blower prevents water spots.
Wash every 1–2 weeks in normal use — more often in winter or dusty conditions.

Brush car washes. Automatic washes with brushes can lift edges and scratch the film.
Pressure washers up close. Keep the nozzle at least 12 inches away and never aim at edges or seams.
Harsh chemicals. No solvents, oven cleaners, or abrasive compounds on the wrap.
Petroleum-based wax. Use only wrap-safe sealants — regular carnauba wax can stain matte finishes.
Scraping ice. Use a soft brush on wrapped areas; never a metal scraper.

Park smart. Shade or a garage slows UV fading more than anything else.
Clean contaminants fast. Bird droppings, tree sap, and road tar should come off within a day or two.
Spot-clean between washes with a damp microfiber and mild soap.
Watch the edges. If you ever see lifting, bring it in — small fixes stay small when caught early.
