Car Wraps and Arizona weather

Arizona Car Wraps, 1st Impressions Truck WrapArizona has such varied climates that caring properly for a vinyl wrap can increase the lifespan of your investment by years. From the central to southern desert to the northern snow covered mountains, a vehicle wrap and cars paint job, for that matter, can really take a beating. Knowing how to properly care for your vehicle wrap in all conditions is key in prolonging the lifespan of your wrap.

With normal care and maintenance your vehicle wrap can last a long time and help protect your vehicle’s paint underneath, while providing you with a valuable investment for your company.

Central and Southern Arizona

With the severe temperatures of the Arizona summers there are many things to keep in mind when caring for your vehicle wrap.

  • Your vehicle wrap will be delicate after sitting in the hot sun for prolonged periods of time.
  • Excessive amounts of sun may cause your vehicle wrap to fade.
  • Beware dust storms and haboobs, they could damage your vehicle wrap.

Northern Arizona

As harsh as the summers are in many parts of Arizona, the winters in northern Arizona can be just as cruel on vehicle wraps. The frigid weather, snow, sleet, and salted roads can take a toll on a vehicle wrap. Here are some things to keep in mind when caring for your vehicle wrap:

  • Snow and ice storms may damage your vehicle wrap.
  • Salted roads could damage your vehicle wrap.
  • Freezing weather could make your vehicle wrap more prone to damage.

Tips:

  • Park your car or truck under covered parking or in a garage when not in use.
  • Regularly hand-wash and wax your vehicle wrap to prolong its lifespan.
  • Avoid harsh weather as much as possible.
  • Be cautious when your vehicle wrap or car is excessively hot or cold.

Although many of these conditions could possibly damage your vehicle wrap, the silver lining is that a vehicle wrap is much cheaper to replace than your vehicle’s paint job. A car wrap is like having a “screen protector” placed over your entire car, and it can be replaced in sections so if it is damaged the whole install may not have to be replaced.

Taking into mind the factors listed above, a car wrap in Phoenix, Flagstaff, or Tucson, Arizona with the proper care and maintenance should last you for years, giving you plenty of return on your investment as you show it off around the state.
