Our Process for Cleaning and Prepping Color Change Vehicle Wraps
At Signify Graphics, we take pride in delivering flawless vehicle wraps. To ensure your wrap looks perfect and lasts, we follow a meticulous cleaning and preparation process. Here’s what you should expect to get your vehicle ready for its new look:
1. Initial Inspection
- Detailed Examination: We start by thoroughly inspecting your vehicle for any damage, rust, or surface imperfections that might need special attention.
2. Cleaning the Surface
- Comprehensive Wash: We wash your vehicle using a gentle automotive soap and water to remove dirt, grime, and surface contaminants.
- Rinse and Dry: We rinse off all soap with water and dry the vehicle using microfiber towels to avoid scratches.
3. Decontamination
- Clay Bar Treatment: Our team uses a clay bar and lubricant to remove any embedded contaminants such as tree sap, tar, or industrial fallout, ensuring a smooth surface.
- Final Rinse: After the clay bar treatment, we rinse the vehicle again to remove any residual clay lubricant.
4. Degreasing
- Isopropyl Alcohol Solution: We wipe down the entire surface of your vehicle with a mix of isopropyl alcohol and water (usually a 70/30 ratio) to remove oils, waxes, and any remaining residues that could affect the wrap’s adhesion.
5. Removing Accessories and Parts
- Obstacle Removal: To facilitate a cleaner wrap and reduce the risk of damage, we remove parts such as mirrors, emblems, antennas, door handles, and trim pieces.
6. Final Inspection and Touch-Up
Surface Inspection: We perform a final inspection to ensure the surface is completely clean and free of contaminants.
By meticulously following these steps, Signify Graphics ensures that your vehicle wrap not only looks amazing but also stands the test of time. Our commitment to excellence in every step of the preparation process guarantees that your vehicle receives the best possible care and attention.
