Wrapping Process

Step 1 - Arrival
At this stage we will discuss what your desired outcome is. This is the same process for roof wraps, mirror wraps and vehicle livery. We will then inspect your vehicle together and make sure everything is in order.

At this point you are more than welcome to have a look round our showroom, or wait in our dedicated customer waiting area. In this waiting area you will find comfortable seating with free access to Wi-Fi, a TV where you can play on Play Station or watch Netflix. Along with complimentary refreshments and toilet facilities. We also have a link into our workshop CCTV system should you wish to watch the progress of your vehicle.

Step 2 - Protect
Every vehicle that comes to us is fitted with temporary mats, seat cover and steering wheel cover. Our industry is not exactly a dirty one, however we prefer to take every precaution when your pride and joy is in our care.

Step 3 - Cleanse
This step is 100% optional!! However we will need to clean the area that the vinyl is being applied to. Most companies will just do with by using a cloth, however by doing this, if there is heavy soiling present on the exterior this could damage the paint where the vinyl is being applied. Due to this we will use a high-pressure wash and rinse with an industrial grade pressure washer (Ehrle HD723) first, to remove any heavy soiling. Before gently wiping down the application area.

Step 4 -  Shrink and Install
This is a dry application, meaning that the vinyl will be shrank, to accommodate contours, and applied at the same time.

Step 5 - Trim
Due to this being a dry process, there will be excess vinyl that needs trimming off. Depending on the application this may be done in 2 ways. For larger area's that require a straight cut (bonnet, roofs) cut tape will be used. This is a special tape that is applied before the vinyl and then pulled through at the end. This leaves a perfect edge with no cutting on the car. For smaller areas like wing mirrors, a guarded knife will be used. This special knife will not come in contact with paintwork.

Step 6 - Clean and Inspect
Once the vinyl is installed, we clean the area thoroughly and inspect for any defects or contamination. This rarely happens, but if anything is found the vinyl will be removed and redone till we are happy with it, and as your probably guessing by now our standards are very high.

Step 7 - Handover and walk round
