Clean Car Before Applying Vinyl Graphics

Vinyl graphics or not the thought of taking your porsche ferrari lamborghini or any car you care about through a drive through car wash makes me cringe.

Clean car before applying vinyl graphics.

Pressure washers and drive through car washes can be bad for your graphics as well as your paint. This may mean allowing the vehicle to sit indoors overnight. If your vehicle is dirty the adhesive material on your vinyl graphics will stick to the dirt on your car and not to the paint. Apply the sticker while the area is still wet.

I show you how to install vinyl decals on a car using soapy water. If you take the vehicle to the car wash for this portion of the cleaning it is important to make sure the vehicle is completely dry before applying the graphics. Take it to a hand car wash or use the daily 5 minute keep it clean method above. In this situation all the hard work and time you spent applying the graphics perfectly will be for naught.

It s not hard but does take a little bit of time. Always clean your space before attempting to install the wrap. It s best to sweep and mop before you bring the car into the space especially in winter due to the electro static charge of the vinyl wraps that will attract dust. After cleaning your surface area wet the area again using a spray bottle and a solution of about 5 soap 95 water.
