As a business owner, your fleet is more than a set of vehicles — it’s a moving extension of your brand. Our wraps are designed to stand up to daily use, while keeping your branding front and center. But let’s be real: life on the road means scratches happen. The good news? High-quality wraps are tougher to mess up than you might think. Here's why, and how we handle issues to protect your image.
While no coating is entirely scratch-proof, premium vinyl wraps—like those we specialize in—feature durable films from brands like 3M. These films are engineered with protective layers to resist everyday wear: road debris, branches, and other environmental factors.* That durability gives your fleet a strong first line of defense.
Unlike paint, wraps are often applied in panels — doors, bumpers, fenders. If a panel gets scratched, we replace just that section. It’s faster, more cost-effective, and gets your vehicle back on the road without a full rewrap.*
For light, surface-level scratches, we can sometimes improve the look in minutes using gentle heating (think heat-gun therapy) that smooths out minor lines.** No downtime. No drama. Just business as usual.
Using abrasive cleaners or sandpaper on vinyl is a recipe for disaster. According to experts, traditional buffing will damage the finish and graphics — and cheap DIY attempts often cost more in the long run.
That’s why we include care tips with every install, and make ourselves available for wrap-safe maintenance or repair. And if your wrap uses high-performance 3M film (like the 2080 series), we follow manufacturer-recommended repair methods* to ensure warranty protection.
Here’s a bonus: a wrap doesn’t just brand your vehicle, it actually shields your factory paint from UV, stone chips, and wear. When it's time to sell or return your vehicle, removing the wrap often reveals nearly untouched paint underneath.* It's like a removable shield that builds equity.
Vehicle wraps are a powerful, flexible branding tool — but only when paired with the right support. At Revolution Wraps, we stand behind our installs with expert repairs and honest care. Scratches? We’ve got this.
