Want to change the look of your car without the permanence (or price tag) of a respray? Car wrapping could be the answer. It’s sleek, flexible, and surprisingly durable. Here’s what it involves, how it stacks up against a full repaint, and how you can find a specialist to wrap your car.
What is a car wrap?
A car wrap is a large vinyl film that’s applied to the exterior of your vehicle to change its appearance. It can cover the whole car (a full wrap) or just certain areas like the roof, bonnet or mirrors (a partial wrap).
Car wraps come in all sorts of colours, finishes and effects - from matte black to metallic, gloss, carbon fibre and even textured styles. The film is carefully cut and heat-applied to each panel for a seamless finish.
It’s a non-permanent way to customise your car’s look - and it protects the original paint underneath too.
Is car wrapping better than repainting?
It depends on what you’re after. Car wrapping has a few key benefits over repainting:
It’s quicker - most wraps can be done in a couple of days
It’s reversible - you can remove or change the wrap down the line
It protects the paint - great for resale value
There’s more choice - you can pick colours, effects, and designs not available in factory paint
That said, a full respray might be better if your paintwork is damaged, or if you’re restoring a classic car and want a long-term, high-gloss finish.
How long does a wrap last on a car?
A professionally installed car wrap can last five to seven years with proper care - sometimes longer. The lifespan depends on the quality of the vinyl, the prep work, and how well you look after it.
To keep it looking sharp:
Wash it by hand (no aggressive jet washing)
Avoid prolonged sun exposure if you can
Stick to gentle cleaners and soft cloths
Over time, you might see signs of wear on edges or high-contact areas, but most wraps age well - and they can be replaced in sections if needed.
How much does car wrapping cost?
According to our figures, the average cost to wrap a car is £3,000.
The exact price you pay will depend on a number of factors, such as the size of your car, the colour or design you choose, and what kind of finish you want
