What is a Color Change Wrap?
A color change car wrap involves the application of a vinyl film that covers your vehicle’s paint with a completely new color or finish.
Unlike traditional automotive paint, a vinyl wrap is non-permanent and can be removed without damaging the underlying paint. The wrap adheres seamlessly to the surface of the car and can be customized in various colors, textures, and finishes.
The Insomnia Wraps Process
Prep:
Upon arrival, the vehicle undergoes a thorough cleaning, starting with a foam bath and hand wash. Next, a clay bar removes embedded contaminants, followed by a 70% alcohol wipe to ensure a spotless surface, perfect for a flawless wrap installation.
Vinyl Installation:
Our skilled installers apply the vinyl film with precision, ensuring a seamless, wrinkle-free fit over every curve and contour. Using expert tools, they smooth the film to eliminate bubbles and imperfections, achieving a flawless, professional finish that enhances the vehicle’s appearance.
Finishing Touches:
Once the vinyl wrap is applied, it is carefully trimmed to fit each panel with precision. The edges are then expertly sealed to ensure a smooth, clean finish, eliminating any gaps or overlaps. This attention to detail creates a seamless, professional look that enhances the vehicle’s overall appearance.
How long does wrap last?
At Insomnia Wraps, we believe in giving your vehicle a stunning, custom look with premium-quality vinyl wraps. However, it's important to remember that vinyl wraps are not a permanent solution. Typically, they last between three to seven years, depending on factors like wrap quality, how your vehicle is stored, and how well it's maintained. For example, constant exposure to the sun and rain can speed up the wear-and-tear process, while a garage-kept vehicle will preserve the wrap much longer. Proper installation is also crucial—any lifting edges or bubbles can cause the wrap to degrade faster.
While vinyl wraps are an excellent way to upgrade your vehicle’s appearance, they won’t last forever. After about three to five years, the film can become brittle and difficult to remove, sometimes even damaging your paint. At Insomnia Wraps, we only use top-quality vinyl, ensuring a longer-lasting and more durable wrap. But even with the best materials, it’s important to monitor the condition and replace your wrap when it’s time. Let us help keep your vehicle looking sharp, and when it’s time for a fresh look, we’ve got you covered!

Why Should I Choose Wrap Over Paint?
Choosing a vehicle wrap offers numerous benefits that make it an appealing option for many individuals. Here are some reasons why someone might choose a wrap:

Protection: A wrap serves as a protective layer for your vehicle's paintwork, shielding it from minor scratches, stone chips, and sun damage. It can help preserve the original paint and maintain the vehicle's resale value.
-
Customization: Vehicle wraps offer endless possibilities for customization. Whether you want a unique color, pattern, or design, wraps allow you to personalize your vehicle to match your style and preferences.
-
Versatility: Wraps can be applied to almost any vehicle, including cars, trucks, vans, motorcycles, and even boats. They can be used for personal or commercial purposes, making them a versatile option for various applications.
-
Temporary Change: Unlike paint, wraps are not permanent and can be easily removed without damaging the vehicle's original finish. This flexibility allows you to change the look of your vehicle as often as you like without the commitment of a permanent alteration.
-
Advertising: For businesses, vehicle wraps serve as a highly effective form of mobile advertising. Wrapping company vehicles with branded designs and messaging helps increase brand visibility, attract attention, and generate leads while on the road.
-
Cost-Effective: Wrapping is often more cost-effective than repainting a vehicle, especially for large fleets or commercial vehicles. It offers a high-quality finish at a fraction of the cost of traditional painting methods.
Overall, choosing a vehicle wrap provides a convenient, customizable, and cost-effective way to protect, enhance, and personalize your vehicle, making it an attractive option for individuals and businesses alike.
