Your vinyl car wrap is your vehicle’s biggest investment and should be treated that way. During summer, however, the sun’s strong UV rays can quickly take their toll on the quality and integrity of your car wrap. There are some things you can do, however, to prolong its life and maximize its performance during the hot summer months.
Park it In the Shade
Keeping your vehicle parked out of direct sunlight is one of the biggest factors that will help protect your car wrap. This is because sunlight can cause the wrap to shrink, brown, crack and fade, leading to expensive replacements. Although avoiding the sun is impossible when driving around for hours on end in the blistering heat, you can take those small extra steps to give your vehicle a break by parking indoors or in the shade whenever possible.
Regularly Maintain it
By regularly taking the time to brush off dirt and debris that land on top of your car, you avoid the effects of the heat melting them and leaving behind stains. Whether it’s flowers or fruit that have fallen from trees or debris from pollution, if left on your car long enough, the stains become impossible to remove.
Regularly Wash it
By regularly washing your car and giving it a good scrub, you’re ensuring any potential stains are lifted and dirt is washed away. This not only keeps your wrap fresh and clean, but it also stops dirt or even bird droppings from baking onto the wrap. When washing, make sure to do so by hand. A vinyl car wrap isn’t meant to be put through a car wash, as it is much too abrasive and could scratch the wrap or cause it to peel.
