What Is A Partial Vehicle Wrap?

A partial vehicle wrap is a graphic applied to specific areas of the vehicle, not the entire body of the vehicle (ex: sides, rear of the vehicle, hood, and/or tailgate). Due to the fact that the graphics on the vehicle can be strategically placed to create an overall look similar to that of a full vehicle wrap but much less expensive to purchase and install, partial vehicle wraps are becoming a popular choice for businesses with limited budgets.

Examples of Customers Who Use Partial Vehicle Wraps:

Smaller businesses

Local service businesses

Delivery companies

Contractors

Realtors

Food service industry businesses

Corporate fleets

When installed professionally, partial wraps will look as if they were painted on the original paint of the vehicle, which gives the vehicle a professional and polished look.

How to Install Professionally Wrapped Commercial Vehicles

Step 1: Initial Consultation

The first step in wrapping a vehicle is to consult with the client to gather information regarding their branding goals, budget and specs about the vehicle. The professional will assess the vehicle's conditions and collaborate with the client to determine design concepts that will create the most visual and impactful marketing.

Step 2: Custom Design Creation

Once a concept has been established, professional graphic designers will create a custom graphic wrap design based on the company's identity through the following items:

- Placement of the logo

- Use of brand colors

- Messaging for marketing

- Contact details

- Website and social media addresses

- Graphics for additional promotions.

A digital proof of the final design is sent to the client for approval before being produced.

Step 3: Preparing the Vehicle

To ensure the best probability of success for wrapping, the vehicle needs to be adequately prepared prior to installation. The vehicle shall be washed thoroughly to remove:

- Dirt

- Dust

- Wax residue

- Oil or grease

- Contaminants from the surface

Any prior existing damage or imperfections will also be assessed to ensure that the wrap has the greatest chance of properly adhering.

Step 4: Printing the Wrap

Once the client has approved the concept and the prepped vehicle is ready, the approved graphics will be printed with advanced digital large-format printers which create high definition, vivid colors. The development of the wrapped material will utilize high quality inks to create a durable, UV resistant finished product.

Laminating

A laminate shielding layer is added to protect graphics from scratches, color change, heat, moisture and damage from other external elements. By adding lamination to a wrap, it will greatly increase its lifespan.

Installation by Professionals

The vinyl is professionally applied by certified installers that use various techniques with tools such as heat guns, squeegees and specialized tools to ensure the vinyl does not have any bubbles or lift when installed.

Final check

The client will have their vehicle checked after the vinyl has been installed to ensure that everything was installed properly according to specifications. The wrap installer checks for alignment of graphics, the quality of adhesion to the vehicle and how the overall appearance of the wrap looks before giving the vehicle back to the client.
