Will a Wrap Hide any Dings or Dents?

Syndicated by The Wrap Shop Co, Memphis, Tennessee

Syndicated by One Source Media, Long Island City, New York

One of the most common questions we get in regards to vehicle wraps is around how well it can hide dents and dings. Sadly, the answer most folks want to hear is a resounding YES! But the truth of the matter is a vehicle wrap will not be a good method to hide any dents or dings on your vehicle. In some instances it can work, it others it will do quite the opposite. Here is more.

Usually, a Vehicle Wrap is going to Highlight Any Dents.

With a tired, older vehicle, scratches dents and dings will be acceptable because the rest of the vehicle looks older. When you wrap a vehicle, and give it basically a brand new exterior, all the little dings are less ‘hidden’ with the entire look of the vehicle. That said, as we’ve mentioned above, if it’s only a couple spots it won’t be the end of the world. Like one of our wrap specialists so perfectly put it: if you’ve been driving it this long and it doesn’t bother you, wrapping it won’t change that.

That Said, a Vehicle Wrap Can Help Hide a Dent.

First off, yes a wrap will cover the dents. But it will not make those imperfections go away. This is because a wrap follows the contour of the vehicle. That said, if you have a single spot on your vehicle which has a couple small dents, we could mask the appearance of those dents with some smart design.

A wrap with a lot of busy elements (see picture below) will be able to create an illusion that helps mask the look of the dent. Another method is by using less glossy materials in the wrap itself. Matte vinyl and matte over-laminate will not reflect as much light; and it is the light reflection which highlights the dent’s contours. So less gloss will me less reflection coming from the dents.

Why a Vehicle Wrap Won’t Hide a Dent or Ding.

The material used in a vehicle wrap is going to be applied directly to the entire surface of your vehicle. It is a thin material which follows all the contours of your vehicle—including any dents or dings. So while it will be applied on top of the dent, it will not make it any less of a dent. It’s important to note, you want this to happen. This is because any vehicle wrap material which does not make direct contact can lead to issues of tearing, bubbling, and more.

Will a Wrap Cover any Scratches or Paint Chips?

Along the same lines as above, a vehicle wrap will follow the contours of any scratch on your vehicle. Small scratches will be shallow enough though that a new wrap will provide an obvious improvement to the look. Additionally, a vehicle wrap will be covering the scratch up so any potential future issues from rust will be completely solved. Along these lines though, any sharp edges (which could cut the vinyl) need to be repaired before a wrap is applied.

Get Any Imperfections Fixed Before Wrapping your Vehicle

Small dents in your vehicle can usually be popped out fairly easily. More difficult dents are also going to be the ones which are more visible before and after a wrap is applied. If you can, try and get as much of your vehicle fixed and repaired before wrapping it. That is, if these dents and things bother you.

Similarly, and share edges, rust spots, or chipping paint will definitely need to be repaired. A vehicle wrap applies directly to the exterior surfaces of a vehicle. If that surface is sharp it can rip the wrap. If that surface is peeling or flaking off, the wrap itself will have a tough time of staying adhered to the vehicle itself.

Promote Company Culture With Graphics

Syndicated by The Wrap Shop Co, Memphis, Tennessee

Syndicated by One Source Media, Long Island City, New York

Companies are deciding to come back to the office at a snail’s pace in 2021. With empty offices all across America, small business owners are considering ways to make use of this time to update their space. Many are considering long-term investments in graphics to expand their brand identity and show off company culture.

why vinyl wall murals are better than paint

What is company culture?

Company culture is a concept all businesses strive to obtain and project. But, what exactly is Company Culture?

A company’s culture encompasses their shared goals, values, and general attitude about how they go about business. It’s the way people feel about the work they do and the values they believe in. It’s also where they see the company going and what they will do in order to get there.

The Benefits of Defining (and displaying) Company Culture

Companies who know their culture have one thing in common: a strong brand identity. They know who they are and who they want to be. Additionally, they know how best to hire the right people for your company’s future. Here are some of the benefits of a defined company culture:

  1. Employee Retention. Employees are much happier when their personality aligns with a company’s culture. They tend to stay longer and will generally have a better and more productive workday.
  2. Increased Efficiency. Companies with a strong, visual brand identity tend to see higher levels of efficiency. Everyone knows what is expected of them.
  3. Boosted Teamwork. When everyone is working towards the same goal, teamwork is just easier. Then when those goals are visible accessible we see more comradery within departments and teams.
  4. Improved Brand Imagery. When you invite clients into your newly renovated space, they will know you are a serious organization! As your brand voice and brand values will be fully displayed!

Ways to Showcase Your Company Culture

Looking for some good ways to visually show your company’s culture? For those companies who understand their values well enough here are some ways you can effectively express them:

Wall Wraps. Upgrade your space with wall graphics that showcase and support your company’s culture. Most of our customers will put up their core values or a company slogan a couple places throughout their building.

Floor Graphics. Many of our customers never even knew floor graphics existed or were so durable and lasting. The use of floor graphics is a great way to add a touch of your branding to wayfinding within your space.

Window Graphics. Where interior wall graphics work great indoors, window graphics will help you extend you brand outside. In fact, you can use these indoors as well on things like conference room glass!

Building Graphics. The newcomer to the graphics space is building wraps or building graphics. Not exactly ‘new’ but more so being adopted more by busines

When to Use Paste Back Wallpaper

Syndicated by The Wrap Shop Co, Memphis, Tennessee

Looking to bring more life into your space? Wallpaper is a great way to achieve a gorgeous look; whether it’s a one-of-a-kind mural, or a common pattern you want to extend throughout your space. When it comes to wall coverings, wallpaper provides many benefits something like vinyl wall wrap many not. That said, within the wallpaper category are many different types of wallpapers. Here we will discus when to use paste back wallpaper.

First, What Exactly is Paste Back Wallpaper?

Past back wall paper is, quite literally, when you apply paste to the backside of non-pasted wallpaper. Then—with the paste on the paper—you stick your wallpaper to the wall. This is different than adhesive backed wallpaper which is applied almost like a sticker. It also differs from pre-pasted wallpaper because it doesn’t need to be soaked in water and then applied after the paste is ‘activated’.

How to Install Paste Back Wallpaper

The process to install paste back wallpaper is fairly straightforward. While the steps sound simple, don’t let that fool you. Installing any type of wall covering—especially wallpaper—is an unforgiving and difficult process to master.

  1. Measure, design, and print the wallpaper itself. Plot and cut wallpaper appropriately. If purchasing a pre-made; measure your walls and buy accordingly.
  2. Clean the installation area thoroughly and let dry. Clean areas mean minimal contaminants.
  3. Unroll your wallpaper on installation day and apply a healthy layer of paste to the backside or “application side” of the non-pasted wallpaper.
  4. Carefully move your wallpaper to the wall where it will be installed. You have some time to position it once it is on the wall, but move fast and efficiently.

The Pros and Cons to Paste Back Wallpaper

Like all building materials, paste back wallpaper has a set of pros and cons. We will list those out here now in order to help better set the stage for when this type of wallpaper will yield the best finished product.

The Pros of Paste Back Wallpaper

  • During installation, it can slide around to get the perfect alignment.
  • Wallpaper is a thicker material, and can hide wall imperfections.
  • Can ensure all edges and corners get a proper amount of paste.
  • Less costly accidents when compared to pre-pasted wallpaper.
  • Can be custom printed to best suit your design requirements.
  • Less mess when compared to pre-pasted wallpaper.
  • Paste can fill in any imperfections in the wall.
  • It is quite permanent, so won’t easily peel.

The Cons of Paste Back Wallpaper

  • Using too much or too little paste can affect installation quality.
  • It is quite permanent, so removal isn’t going to exactly be easy.
  • Takes some skill and experience to get the right consistency.
  • Tends to be more costly than other types of wallpaper.
  • Messier than adhesive-backed wallpaper.

When to Use Paste Back Wallpaper

So with all this information, when then would be the best time to use a paste back wallpaper? As a wall covering company, we work with every type of wall covering available from wallpaper to wall murals. As such, our job is to help our customers find the best material for their installation.

When it comes to paste back wallpaper, one of the best uses is when a wall is in rough shape: dents, scratches, dings. This is because the paste can fill in those slight imperfections. In addition, the thickness of the wallpaper itself also helps to cover up those issues.

Another great time to consider paste back wallpaper is when you know you want a more permanent solution. Adhesive-back vinyl wall graphics are now lasting longer than ever, but they will never live up to the longevity of professional wallpaper.

In this video, Bill Moss, TKO Graphix installation manager, discusses removing and replacing vehicle decals as we watch a TKO installation crew updating the graphics on a Plainfield, Indiana Police Department. The process begins by heating the old vinyl graphics with a torch then pulling them carefully off the vehicle. Any residual vinyl is removed using a soft cloth and a citrus based cleaner. The new graphics are measured, marked, positioned, and squeegeed in place.
