What are van wraps? Van wrapping falls within the wider category of automotive graphics. Essentially van wraps are large custom decals typically designed to cover a large portion or all of a business’s vans. These custom wraps virtually personalize an otherwise standard van, turning it from a generic van to a highly customized vehicle that acts as a signage vehicle anywhere you or your staff drive and park.
As with any customization, van graphics require maintenance. While it’s certainly true that van wraps can be completely removed, changed, or defaced without much difficulty, you may occasionally still want to keep your graphics in place. Whether you decide to keep your van graphics in place due to budgetary concerns or simply out of habit, you should be aware that a simple cleaning and repair for your van graphics will not only provide you with much more flexibility but will also save you money on routine maintenance, as well as installation and repair/removal work. To ensure the longevity of your graphic, you must take care of it properly.
When cleaning your van wraps, one of the most important things to remember is that vinyl is a very tough material. However, it’s also fairly easy to damage vinyl; among other things, you can overheat the vinyl and cause it to crack, split or otherwise become damaged. To avoid this, it’s advised that you either purchase a cleaner specifically made for vinyl or that you clean your van wraps using only products specifically designed for cleaning vinyl. It’s also recommended that you only use cleaners that have been specifically designed for this type of material.
Keeping your graphics in place is not only about keeping them clean, it’s also about protecting them from damage. If you have any exposed artwork, images, designs, or words on your van wraps, it’s advised that you remove these before you store your van at any storage facility. This will ensure that the artwork doesn’t get damaged in the process and that it will remain undamaged should you decide to sell your van in the future.
To install your van graphics, all you need are instructions that you can find online. Some people prefer to use templates when designing their vinyl decal, but a more creative option would be to make your template out of vinyl paper. The first step in creating your template is to cut out the required amount of vinyl based on the size of your original van and then carefully peel off the backing. Once the paper is completely removed, you can lay it flat and then carefully fold the two sides of the vinyl so that it is tightly pressed into place.
If you want to create a custom look for your vans, you can do so by adding graphics of your own. There are some ways you can incorporate graphics into your commercial van wraps. The most popular way to do so is to use special vinyl decals that come with adhesive backing. These decals have pre-designed graphics that are specifically made to stick to your van. You can either choose to make your graphics or buy them online. The latter option is preferable if you want to design your graphic as many websites offer excellent printing services for affordable prices.
