What Types of Car Wraps Are Available?

When it comes to car wraps and you’re looking to make a decision on which will best suit you, note that there are four kinds of wraps available. They are:

  • Full vs Partial
  • Printable
  • Pre-Dyed
  • Color Change  

Full vs. Partial Wraps:

A full wrap covers your entire vehicle, transforming it into a mobile advertisement. In contrast, a partial wrap covers a portion of the vehicle, typically ranging from 25% to 75%. Partial wraps offer a more cost-effective option while still providing significant visibility. You can choose which sections to wrap—such as the hood, doors, or rear—depending on your marketing goals and budget. Even with partial coverage, you can achieve eye-catching results that maximize exposure without the higher costs of a full wrap.

Printable Wrap:

A printable vinyl wrap allows you to fully customize your vehicle’s appearance by printing your own designs, logos, contact information, and a variety of colors directly onto the wrap. This type of wrap provides maximum flexibility, letting you incorporate intricate designs and detailed artwork that might not be possible with pre-dyed wraps. It’s a great option for businesses looking to showcase their brand in vibrant, full-color designs. With printable vinyl, the possibilities are almost endless, allowing you to create a truly unique and professional look.

Pre-Dyed Wrap:

Pre-dyed vinyl wraps offer a simple and budget-friendly option for vehicle wrapping but come with limitations. Unlike printable wraps, pre-dyed vinyl cannot accommodate complex graphics or multi-colored designs. However, you can still choose from a wide range of solid or pre-finished colors, allowing you to achieve a sleek and professional look.

While pre-dyed wraps can’t feature detailed company logos or graphics, they work well for basic branding elements like a company name, phone number, or website, all displayed in a single color. For example, a startup plumbing business might use a solid blue wrap with black lettering to save costs. Pre-dyed wraps are ideal for businesses looking for a clean, straightforward design without the higher price tag of fully customizable, printable vinyl.

Color Change Wrap:

A color change wrap is primarily designed for individuals rather than businesses. It’s a popular choice for those who want to refresh or personalize the look of their vehicle without committing to a full paint job. For example, someone with a cream-colored Corvette might opt for a sleek fire-red wrap to give it a sportier appearance.

Color change wraps offer a cost-effective and reversible way to update a car’s style, making them ideal for car enthusiasts or anyone ready for a new look without the permanence or expense of traditional paintwork.
