How to minimize wear on your Chrome Vinyl Wraps
Consider the following tips to ensure durability and minimal wear on your vehicle wrap.
1. Keep it clean
Vinyl wraps are less expensive to maintain and clean than paint. However, they must be cleaned regularly to remove foreign objects like coffee, insects and bird droppings. You only need a sponge with warm soapy or warm water to clean your vinyl wrap. You can maximize the appearance of your wrap by gently cleaning it every two weeks. This will also prevent substances from baking onto the surface. If you don't clean your wrap, substances can adhere to the surface and cause damage when trying to remove them.
2. Store your vehicle in a safe location
Over time, prolonged exposure to sunlight and other harsh weather conditions will cause your wrap to become damaged. It is best to park your vehicle in covered areas, such as garages or underground parking lots. This will minimize the exposure to weather conditions. This will protect both your wrap and vehicle from damage. It will maximize the life of the vinyl, and minimize the chances of weather-based damages such as fading.
3. Avoid high-pressure water and wax
You may be tempted by a pressure wash or automated car wash, but neither is recommended. Both methods use chemicals and high water pressure that can damage vinyl. The pressure may cause the vinyl to tear in some cases. You will have to pay for replacement or repairs. If you have to use a high-pressure washer, make sure the pressure does not exceed 1,000 PSI. Also, avoid using harsh chemicals. You should also avoid waxing your wrap, as it can degrade vinyl and cause damage.www.vinylcarwrapshop.com
