Vehicle Wrap FAQs

Straight answers about vinyl wraps, pricing, and care from Prestige Auto Wrapping in Mission, BC, serving Abbotsford, Maple Ridge, Chilliwack, Langley, and the Fraser Valley.

How much does it cost to wrap a car in BC?

A full color change wrap at Prestige Auto Wrapping starts from $2,800 for cars and trucks. Boat wraps start from $1,200, equipment wraps from $2,000, and headlight or taillight tinting from $99. Every quote is confirmed after we see the vehicle, and an $800 non-refundable deposit books your install date.

How long does a vinyl wrap last?

A professionally installed vinyl wrap typically lasts 3 to 5 years. Lifespan depends on sun exposure, how the vehicle is stored, and how well the wrap is maintained. Garage-kept vehicles that are hand washed regularly sit at the top of that range.

Will a wrap damage my paint?

No. On factory paint in good condition, a vinyl wrap actually protects the finish underneath from UV fading, light scratches, and stone chips. When the wrap is removed properly, the original paint comes back looking the way it went in. Repainted or peeling surfaces are the exception and we flag those before wrapping.

What wrap brands do you use?

We install premium films from 3M and Avery Dennison, the two most trusted names in vehicle vinyl. Both offer strong color stability, conformability on curves, and clean removal at end of life. Customer-supplied materials can be installed, but our installer warranty may not apply to them.

Can you wrap over scratches, chips, or dents?

Vinyl conforms tightly to the surface, so pre-existing chips, deep scratches, and dents can still be visible through the wrap. A wrap is not body work. If the damage matters to you, repair it first; if not, we will tell you honestly what will and will not show.

Does a wrap look exactly like paint?

A quality wrap looks stunning, but it is not paint. Some seams and edges in panel gaps can be visible up close on complex body shapes. We wrap with meticulous attention to seam placement so the vehicle presents clean at every normal viewing distance.

How do I wash and maintain a wrapped vehicle?

Hand wash every 1 to 2 weeks with a pH-neutral soap and soft microfiber cloths. Remove bird droppings, sap, and fuel spills promptly before they etch the film. Avoid automatic car washes and high-pressure washing, both can lift edges and dull the finish.

Is wrapping cheaper than repainting?

Usually, yes. A comparable quality respray in BC often costs more than a full wrap, takes longer, and is permanent. A wrap is reversible, protects the factory paint underneath, and lets you change color again in a few years without hurting resale value.

Do you wrap boats and equipment?

Yes. Custom boat wraps start from $1,200 and equipment wraps from $2,000. We also do chrome deletes, precision vehicle stripes, headlight and taillight tinting, and luxury starlight headliner installations. If it has a surface, we can probably wrap it.

Is there a warranty on the wrap?

Wraps installed with our supplied 3M or Avery Dennison film are covered by our installer warranty. If you supply your own material, the installer warranty may not apply, film quality outside our control is the main failure risk. Warranty details are confirmed in writing with your quote.
