What is a Vehicle/Promotional Wrap?
A Vehicle/Promotional Wrap is any vehicle fully covered with graphic material. This can be done with full color printed vinyl graphics, die-cut colored vinyl, or a combination of both.
What kind of vehicles can be wrapped?
All makes and models of vehicles can be wrapped. Vehicles with fewer curves are easier, and larger vehicles have more area for your message.
How long do Vehicle Wraps last?
At GRS Signs you have a choice based on the desired duration of the graphics application. On an average permanent application the Vehicle Wrap graphics will last up to 5 years, with the window areas lasting about 4 years. For promotional applications, shorter term materials are available.
What happens when the graphics are removed?
In both application and removal of Vehicle Wraps, the key is working with an experienced installer such as GRS Signs. We rarely experience any problems with paint removal, especially with newer vehicles. If your vehicle is in good condition and has no prior repainting or touch-up painting GRS Signs does not foresee any problems when the graphics are removed. Older or repainted vehicles may exhibit some damage to the paint upon removal of the graphics. It is still important to realize that paint issues upon removal from wrapped passenger vehicles, SUV's and other fleet applications are not covered by warranty.
Does the car have to be a certain color to make the Vehicle Wrap work?
A full Vehicle Wrap will cover all painted areas and, in most cases, the original paint color will not affect the vehicle graphics (exceptions include painted bumpers and mirrors that may not be covered). The graphic material is opaque, so all areas covered with the design will not show the original paint color.
Who designs what the actual vehicle will look like?
Your designer or GRS Signs. We also focus on the production and installation of chosen design. We have an extensive library of computer templates for vehicles which takes the guesswork out of your design. Our staff of production artists are educated with all the latest computer design programs and we pride ourselves on producing the color and details as specified by your design.
