Vehicle wraps are the hottest products in the signage industry these days. Just about every business that has vehicles on the road during the day has vinyl graphics or wraps. But, how are vehicle wraps designed and installed? And, are they right for your business? This blog entry will unwrap the mystery surrounding these effective advertising tools and answer the question, “What is the vehicle wrap process?”
What Do You Need?
The first step of the process is you, the client, figuring out what you want. The Sign Center can meet with you over the phone or in person to give you a free consultation. We generally get a better idea of the car wrap design you want when we meet in person, but we understand that this can be difficult with your busy schedule.
To help us design your vehicle wrap, we will go over many different topics during the consultation. Whether you are just trying to brand your company image or you want to promote a specific product, we figure out what you are trying to sell during the first part of the consultation. We will then go over the different wrap options:
Partial Vehicle Wrap – For larger vehicles, this is a more economical option. To highlight your product and brand, vivid graphics are used.
- Combination of Vinyl Lettering and Graphics – To give clients a reason to get in touch with you, we can use cut vinyl and digitally printed graphics to create vibrant vehicle advertising.
- Full Vehicle Wrap – Nearly 100 percent of your car can be wrapped. You get the most visual punch with this. From far away or nearby, you can grab everyone’s attention.
We will then discuss your budget and determine what design, materials, and wrap type is best for you.
The Design Process
The first part of design is getting any artwork from you that you may want incorporated into the wrap. This usually includes your company logo, typeface, and the precise colors you want, so that you can maintain brand consistency. If you have already designed your wrap or have your own designer, we can work with that to achieve the best results.
Otherwise, our graphic designers will create an array of custom concepts for your approval. We will reach out to you for feedback before we actually fabricate the wrap. Your revisions will be incorporated into subsequent drafts, and we will not begin until we have your final approval.
Producing the Vehicle Wrap
In our manufacturing facility, we will expertly produce your wrap using our state of the art wide format digital printer. To make certain you get the best vinyl wrap possible, we only use the best quality laminate and vinyl materials. Most of our projects use 3M materials. When installed professionally, this vinyl comes with a long warranty.
Wrap Installation
Your vehicle is finally prepared for wrap installation in our climate controlled facility. The graphics and wrap will be installed to your satisfaction once our professional installation team has properly prepared the wrap.
