As an airbrush artist and a painter the biggest difference which no one mentions is the long run of it and how it can be fixed or not fixed. With vinyl as soon as you get a scratches, chips and dents and, you will. You're stuck and have to pay to have it all redone. With paint it can be touched up. And since I do high quality art, I can also spot repair the art and reclear and cut and buff it to a perfect mirror finish. That's the difference.
@n54anaya792 жыл бұрын
Orange peel with vinyl is irrelevant now because many companies have created wraps that look more clear than paint. Biggest issue i can think about between vinyl & paint for a diy’r is that if you don’t have patience than you’re not gonna be able to get far in wrapping the car yourself, but with paint anyone can take a sand paper and sand, paint, sand, polish.

Is vinyl wrap durable? Like does it chip/warp easily when applied?
@pippalottadejong3 жыл бұрын
I just know it takes awhile to get everything down and perfect without any glue or air issues. it can stretch but that’s why you use air. it’s pretty durable though and I think that wrap can last around 7 years which is also pretty good. don’t take my word for it tho cause I’m definitely not an expert 😂

It doesn’t chip or warp but it does scratch and peel if you’re reckless. Extreme heat can also cause it to bubble in some cases. Certain wraps do have protection against it however.

One thing for me leaning towards vinyl now is my car will have a fiber glass widebody and plan on doing some Auto X. If something does happen and the panels need to be repaired its so much easier to repair with vinyl. Just rip the vinyl off, repair the panel and reapply the vinyl. I got enough to wrap my door so it will be the a test fit just not sure if ill like the look of the vinyl.

Problems with vinyl come in a year or two. When you have small scratches, of really hot hot weather or winters with chemical roads. If you paint your car with GOOD paint and GOOD hands, yes its gonna cost around 8k, but you will have your car look perfect and shiny waaay longer and also if something happens, you paint it locally without rewrapping the whole part.
@BrianErwin Жыл бұрын
but if you spent $2k-$3k on the wrap, two years pass, you can change the color for another $2k-$3k and still come out cheaper than paint. that's four years, and two different looking cars, and by that time, you should be getting another car.
@Jamespercy711 Жыл бұрын
I choose wrap any day because you can choose and customize any combination of colors or design and install at ease as long as you have patience, I do my own wraps. In addition with wrap there is no sanding polishing mixing or any of that bs that you have to do with painting, clean prep install done. With wrap though say good bye to automated car washes and leaving your car out in the sun without a car cover.

Painting is probably worse because imagine if you make a mistake and don't notice till later? For example painting over some dents that you didn't fix when you really wanted it to be a Flawless job.
