Car maintenance after the wrapping
Once wrapped, your car requires specific maintenance:
- Hand wash only.
- Avoid using abrasive cleaners or cloths.
- Remove dirt and grease with a squeegee or a lint-free soft cloth.
Partial versus a full-color wrap
If you are looking to transform the overall appearance of your car, then you should probably choose the full wrap. We will cover every part of the vehicle’s bodywork, including the side mirrors, bumpers, and fenders, with a vinyl film of fresh color.
But if you just want to create some nice color accents, go for a partial wrap. Select a preferable color or finish (for example, carbon fiber or gloss metallic) to make certain parts of the car stand out. There’s no reason you can’t use different colors and finishes on different parts of your car for a fun, vibrant look! We also have special offers for the development of custom designs!
Cost of color wrapping your car
To fully wrap an average-sized sedan car, you should budget from $3,200, for an SUV — from $3,800. Remember, this is an upfront cost that lasts for at least 2 years with low maintenance required. The exact cost of a car wrap is dependent on the following:
- Brand of vinyl: Generally, applying various matte vinyl wraps from renowned companies can be significantly cheaper than using vinyl wrap from a less recognized brand.
- The area of the car covered: It’s straightforward – the larger the area covered by the car wrap, the higher the final cost of the entire job.
- Skill of installer: An essential factor to consider. The installer’s professionalism not only influences the result but also the durability of the vinyl wrap.
- Intricacy of wrap: Naturally, flat surfaces like the hood and trunk are quicker and easier with a vinyl wrap compared to doors and windows.

Ideas for colors and options for vinyl wrap for inspiration
Car wrap vinyl films are an excellent solution for customizing your vehicle. You can apply any design and pattern, both on satin and gloss film. The choice is limited only by your imagination!
Many companies brand their vehicles using car wrap to increase recognition and remind customers about themselves! The convenience of applying vinyl wrap is also in the ability to combine both colors and final finishes.
It’s also worth noting that it doesn’t matter what color and shade your car was before applying the vinyl wrap. The film is so well-pigmented and saturated that it will cover the original color of your vehicle. Are you worried that scratches and fingerprints will remain on the colored coating? We assure you that they won’t!
Develop a custom vinyl wrap design with professionals from Tinting Chicago! Competent specialists will provide you with a wide selection of colors and finishes so that you will be satisfied with the result!
How long does it take to change the color of my car?
When installed by professionals, the process doesn’t take long — the job can be done within a day or two. But speak to us to know the exact timings for color wrapping your car. The following factors determine the exact timeframe of an installation:
- Size of car
- Model of a car (it takes longer to wrap some rare or vintage models)
- Area wrapped (full or partial)
- Size and shape of graphics/decals
Should I install a vinyl film myself?
The short answer is “No”. Professional installers receive hours of training before they’re able to achieve a wrap with a flawless appearance. Vinyl film is an expensive material, particularly for high-end finishes, such as carbon fiber. Correctly installed vinyl film lasts for between 5 and 7 years, so why not have the peace of mind that your film has been installed in a well-lit, dust-free workshop by professionals who know exactly what they’re doing.
