A3 Wraps

A car window Decal is usually printed on a type of Window film known as Perforation due to the small holes that allow one-way vision through the Window film. You can see out but not in; viewers outside the Vehicle see the Vehicle Graphics on your Window film, but the driver and passengers inside the Vehicle can still see out to the road. Other types of Window film are not safe for Vehicle windows because they block visibility of the road and traffic, potentially leading to accidents.

A vinyl Decal, or Vehicle vinyl wrap, should never damage vehicle Paint if applied correctly and removed correctly—and if the Vehicle vinyl wrap is of sufficient quality. There are many low-grade Vehicle vinyl wrap products on the market, and hopefully you never use them to make your Decal. Sticking with a trusted brand such as The 3M Company and Avery Dennison is best when making a car Decal.

Ceramic coating and Paint protection film are totally different products for totally different purposes. Granted, they’re both designed to protect your Paint and extend the lifespan of your Vehicle exterior, but they do so via different mechanisms and in response to different threats to your Paint. Let’s examine Ceramic coating and Paint protection film in turn to see the differences. Ceramic coating is like having an extra coat of Vehicle Paint clear coat, except it’s much better. Your manufacturer clear coat doesn’t contain Ceramic nanoparticles, while Ceramic coating does. Ceramic is one of the hardest materials known to science, so you’re getting a supercharged clear coat that forms a protective shell over your Paint. All those substances that wear down your paint (bird droppings, hard water deposits, road salt, etc) are stopped by the Ceramic. Clear bra, or Paint protection film, is a defense against rock chips. It is a tough Polyurethane membrane that covers your Bumper, Hood, and other parts that catch the most road gravel. Paint protection film is rugged enough to stop the majority of small freeway projectiles from harming your Paint. Ceramic coating is hard and brittle (most really hard things are brittle) so don’t expect it to defend against rock chips. It excels at protecting your paint from other harmful influences such as sun exposure and corrosives. Clear bra (paint protection film) can protect your Paint from chips as well as from corrosives, but most clear bra customers opt for the front end only to keep costs down. If you really want all your bases covered and have the budget, go for Ceramic coating AND Paint protection film. You’ll have the security of knowing your Paint is protected by ultrahard Ceramic and that a Polyurethane shield is there to stop rock chips from harming your front end.

Ceramic coating is completely transparent, so any previous Paint scratches will be visible. Most Ceramic coating shops will do Paint correction prior to Ceramic application, but Paint correction won’t remove larger, more serious scratches. For those, you’ll need some repaint work.

Don't put any old sticker on your car window. The adhesive will deteriorate in sunlight and may cause permanent adhesion, meaning if you ever want to remove the sticker you'll have a mess left behind. If you want a window Decal, we recommend using perf Window film from a top-tier Vehicle vinyl wrap manufacturer such as Avery Dennison or 3M. It's designed with tiny holes for one-way visibility, it goes on clean and comes off clean, and it can be printed on. Any graphic, company logo, or Lettering you desire can be printed on a Decal of any dimension you like to fit your window.

Here at A3 Wraps – Vehicle Graphics & Clear Bra, we offer Ceramic Pro ceramic coating in 3 options or packages. Our most expensive package comes with a lifetime warranty!

No, don't wax your car before taking it in for Ceramic coating. If you do, it's no big deal, because the Ceramic installer will clean your car really well anyway and do Paint correction on it.

One-way vision or one-way visibility is acheivable with a specific type of Window film known as perf or Perforation vinyl Window film. Tiny holes are strategically positioned to allow transparency from one direction, but opacity from the other direction. Typically, perf Window film is used for Vehicle Graphics or storefront graphics, where people on one side of the window see the graphics and people on the other side see through them.

Paint protection film works amazingly well—for what it's designed for. PPF, or clear bra as it's commonly called—is designed to protect your car's front end from rock chips. It performs beautifully at that. Will it stop every bit of damage? No: if a large enough rock comes your way at 80mph on the freeway, no clear bra will stop that from denting your vehicle. But all those pesky bits of gravel and debris that constitute 99% of flying freeway missiles? They're just big enough to take a fleck from your paint but too small to do anything worse, and they're exactly what Paint protection film is designed to protect against. And it does.

The wrong type of sticker can ruin your car paint, which is why you should work with a reputable car wrap company that uses high-grade Vehicle vinyl wrap material from 3M, Avery Dennison, or some other respected manufacturer. Such vinyl products are designed to come off cleanly when you're done with the car wrap, leaving your paint in the same condition it was in before the vehicle wrap was installed!

Yes, Ceramic coating is significantly better than wax for protecting a vehicle's finish. It's also a lot more expensive than wax—but worth every penny! Think of Ceramic coating as wax on steroids: way harder, way more durable (the Ceramic Pro Gold Package involves 4 layers of Ceramic Pro 9H coating and is warrantied for the life of the vehicle!), and better in every aspect. If you want to not ever wax your car again, but have superior gloss and protection, Ceramic coating might just be for you!

Yes, you can advertise your business on your car, Pickup truck, van, SUV, boat, Trailer, Bus, or other vehicle. Talk to a Sign shop that specializes in vehicle Signage and they can design, print, and install custom Vehicle Graphics to fit your vehicle. If you're anywhere in the greater Denver area, give us a call at A3 Wraps - Vehicle Graphics & Clear Bra and we can take care of your Vehicle Graphics needs!

Ceramic coating is designed to protect your Paint from degradation due to solar radiation and corrosive substances. It is really hard, which is why it performs so well, but it is also really brittle, which gives it very poor impact resistance. So no, don’t rely on Ceramic coating to prevent rock chips: that’s a job for Paint protection film (commonly known as clear bra).

Clear bra (Paint protection film) is not designed to be patched. If your clear bra has heavy damage, you’ll want to replace the damaged section. For example, if your Bumper Paint protection film has damage, you can replace just the Bumper clear bra section.

Clear bra (the common term for Paint protection film) is so expensive because (a) the clear material itself is a highly-engineered film, and (b) Paint protection film installers are trained professionals who (hopefully) have attended trainings by 3M, Avery Dennison, Xpel, or whichever brand of Paint protection film they are using. So there you have it: you’re paying for a high-performance membrane installed by a qualified clear bra technician.

If you want Vehicle Graphics on the rear window of your Car, Truck, Van, or SUV, you’re best off going with a type of Window film known as Perforation. This Window film can be printed with whatever graphics, Logo, or Branding you desire and applied to your window. The Perforation allows for one-way vision: those inside the Vehicle can see through the Perforation to the outside, while those outside looking in see the Vehicle Graphics on your rear window! Perforation Window film also works great on Retail and Storefront windows! If you’re in the Denver area and you want to learn more about Perforation or other types of Window film, call A3 Wraps - Vehicle Graphics & Clear Bra today at (720) 647 9688 and we’ll talk you through your options and give you an estimate!

While there may be no single best Paint protection film, the three top contenders are made by The 3M Company, Avery Dennison, and Xpel. Each of these three Vehicle vinyl wrap manufacturers makes an excellent clear bra film and you can’t go wrong with any of them. The 3M Company has been around for more than a century and has long established itself as a leader in materials science. 3M Scotchgard is a highly-respected Paint protection film and one of the top clear bra options out there. Avery Dennison has proven itself to be a top-tier Vehicle vinyl wrap manufacturer and its Supreme clear bra Polyurethane film is excellent. As with 3M, you can’t go wrong with Avery Dennison Paint protection film. Here at A3 Wraps – Vehicle Graphics & Clear Bra, we use Xpel Paint protection film. Not because it’s necessarily far superior to Avery Dennison and 3M clear bra products, but because we know and trust it. We can confidently say that Xpel Ultimate Plus and Xpel Stealth are as good, if not better, as the 3M and Avery Dennison Paint protection film products, and that’s enough for us. Other Paint protection film manufacturers include SunTek, VViViD, LLumar, and Oracal. We’re not going to say anything pro or con about these—we’ll leave it at saying that 3M, Avery Dennison, and Xpel are the three clear bra manufacturers to trust, and that we have chosen to offer Xpel to our customers. If you are anywhere in the greater Denver area and would like a quote for Paint protection film, call A3 Wraps – Vehicle Graphics & Clear Bra at (720) 647 9688 and we’ll take good care of you!

Yes, a car Decal is made on printable vinyl (Vehicle vinyl wrap material) specifically designed and manufactured for Vehicle Graphics and Mobile advertising applications. Never attempt to install a car Decal printed on any other material. Top Vehicle vinyl wrap manufacturers include The 3M Company and Avery Dennison; if you have your Decal printed onto Vehicle vinyl wrap manufactured by either of those two companies you will be happy with the result.

Yes, Paint protection film, commonly called clear bra, can be removed if it’s from a top-tier Paint protection film manufacturer (3M, Avery Dennison, Xpel, etc). Here at A3 Wraps – Vehicle Graphics & Clear Bra, we use Xpel Paint protection film. Here’s what Xpel says about removing their clear bra film: “Removing Paint Protection Film Professional removal of the film is recommended. However, when professional removal is not possible, the film may be removed as follows: Removal of paint protection film should be done with a steamer. It will keep the film pliable and wet so that it can be “stretched” off the vehicle. Peel one corner of the film up with your fingernail. Pull the film towards you at a shallow angle less than 45 degrees (see figure 8a). This angle is important to ensure sure that the adhesive comes off with the film rather than staying on the paint. The film should “stretch” off the car. If any adhesive is left on the car, use a general adhesive remover to help loosen it.” This procedure should be similar to other clear bra manufacturers as well.

Yes, you can put a Logo on your car. Or Truck, Van, SUV, Bus, Boat, or any other type of conveyance. You have a few options. • Have your Logo printed onto a Decal that will be applied to your Vehicle Paint. • Have your Logo printed onto Window film that will cover one or more of your Vehicle windows (the rear window is a common choice for this). Your Window film will have Perforation so that you can see right out through it, yet people outside looking in will see your Logo or graphic. In other words, it is Window film with one-way visibility. • Have your Logo printed onto a full (or partial) Vehicle vinyl wrap that will be cling to your Vehicle Paint and cover it like a second skin. If you go the full wrap route, you can include many other graphic elements besides your Business Logo; essentially you can turn your Vehicle into a mobile Billboard for your Brand.

You should never put a sticker on Vehicle paint unless it is specifically designed to function as Vehicle Graphics and are made by respected Vehicle vinyl wrap brands such as 3M, Avery Dennison, and other top-tier manufacturers. Many stickers have the wrong type of adhesive and will damage your Vehicle Paint—or will not come off cleanly when it’s time to remove them. In contrast, a Decal printed on proper Vehicle vinyl wrap material will protect and preserve your Vehicle Paint and is designed to come off cleanly when you’re ready to remove it.

A perforated window Decal is a type of Window film that allows one-way visibility due to the Perforation (small holes) in the film.

A good Vehicle Graphics shop can take your picture—provided the resolution is high enough—and print it out to size for your car wrap or Decal. If you want a smaller Decal, say for your Door or Hood, then the Vehicle Graphics shop can do that as well. Using Large format printing capabilities, the Graphics company will print your picture onto Vehicle vinyl wrap material from a manufacturer such as 3M or Avery Dennison.

A car wrap allows you to • Change your car's color (known as a color change wrap) • Advertise your Company with Vehicle Graphics printed on the wrap with your Logo and other Graphics. • Give your Vehicle some flair with Racing stripe, Hood wrap, or other partial Vehicle vinyl wrap accents A Vehicle vinyl wrap will also preserve your car's Paint

A Decal with your Business logo can be as inexpensive as a few hundred dollars or as expensive as a few thousand dollars. It really depends on the following factors: • The type of car you own. Large vehicles such as Food trucks cost more, obviously, than small cars • The amount of the Vehicle you want to cover with the Vehicle Graphics. For example, do you want to have a small Logo Decal on your Hood or do you want your Business Logo to cover half of your Vehicle? Or maybe even your whole Paint surface? If you have more questions about Vehicle vinyl graphics, including prices for getting your Business Logo on your Vehicle, please call A3 Wraps - Vehicle Graphics & Clear Bra at (720) 647 9688 today for a free estimate!

Getting Vehicle Graphics is fairly straightforward if you're working with a good car wrap shop. • Develop your graphics in collaboration with the Vehicle Graphics designer at the shop. If you already have the Graphics you want on your Vehicle, the Graphic designer will need to merely set those graphics in a car wrap template so that they lay correctly across the vehicle. The Graphic designer should be able to show you a mock-up of what your Vehicle will look like with completed wrap. If you don’t have any Graphics, the designer can work with you to develop some. A lot of back-and-forth eats up the designer’s time and can run up quite a bill, so be aware of that going in. Usually, the car wrap shop will give you an estimate that includes basic graphics layout, printing, and installation of the wrap—but not extensive design work. • Depending on the payment policies of your particular Vehicle wrap shop, pay the downpayment so they can get started. Most Vehicle Graphics companies require a 50% deposit to cover upfront costs, then 50% when the Vehicle Graphics are completed. • Sit back and wait. Usually, your Vehicle will need to be in the shop for a couple of days, but sometimes as many as three or four. • Go pay the remainder of your bill and collect your Vehicle from the Vehicle Graphics shop.

The term Decal, when applied to Vehicle Graphics, simply refers to a Sticker printed on specialty Vinyl. The Decal can be as small as a bumper sticker or as large as a full Vehicle vinyl wrap or full Vehicle Graphics. A3 Wraps - Vehicle Graphics & Clear Bra can design, print, and install your Decal on your vehicle, on your Window (as a Perforation that allows you to see out of your windows), or on some part of your Vehicle (for example, on your Door, Hood, Roof, or other part of your Paint). Your Decal could be branded with your Business logo and message, or it could be personal to you.

To create a car Decal, you will need the following: • Your graphics, preferably in vector format • A Digital printer capable of printing on Vehicle vinyl wrap • Quality Vinyl vehicle wrap material made by a reputable manufacturer such as 3M or Avery Dennison • A way to cut out your Decal in the appropriate shape (such as a perfect circle) Print your graphics onto the Vinyl vehicle wrap material in the correct dimensions, cut the shape, clean the Vehicle Paint surface and apply it to your Vehicle.

To the best of our knowledge, there exist no laws or regulations in the city of Denver or the State of Colorado prohibiting rear window decals, so long as they have a Perforation pattern that allows the driver to see through to the road behind . However, A3 Wraps - Vehicle Graphics & Clear Bra does not provide legal advice and so you should do your own research or consult with an attorney.

We don't know of any laws in Colorado preventing you from advertising your business on your car with Vehicle Graphics. If there were, then a lot of business owners would be afoul of those laws. However, A3 Wraps - Vehicle Graphics & Clear Bra never gives legal advice and you're best off to consult an attorney if you want to be absolutely certain.

Vehicle Graphics, also known as Mobile advertising or vehicle wrap advertising, is very effective. According to the Outdoor Advertising Association of America (OAAA), Mobile advertising (including Vehicle Graphics) reaches more people at a lower CPM (basically a measurement of how much it costs to reach a thousand people with your message) than other modes of outdoor Advertising. Basically, Vehicle Graphics are super cost-effective at reaching your potential customers and informing them of your product or service. The OAAA also found 98% of respondents in a survey noticed Vehicle Graphics. Nearly everyone notices them because if you’re in traffic you can’t make that Mercedes Sprinter plumbing van wrap with a bold Logo and plumbing guy holding his wrench disappear. Vehicle Graphics are so effective also because they get so many views: the OAAA reports that one vehicle wrap can get between 30,000 and 80,000 “impressions” or views per day. The average American logs around 300 miles per week in a Vehicle and passes 9 million other Vehicles! That's what we call a captive audience! You pay for Vehicle Graphics once and they do their job year after year; you won’t find any form of marketing or Advertising that reaches that many potential customers at such a low cost per view. So yes, car wrap Advertising is incredibly effective, and incredibly inexpensive, when measured over the long term. Unfortunately, many business owners focus on the upfront cost of a Vehicle vinyl wrap, when they should (in our opinion) focus on the value and benefit.

Vehicle vinyl wraps for a Pickup truck can be a few hundred dollars for partial wraps (Roof wrap, carbon fiber on mirrors, Racing stripe) all the way up to several thousand dollars for elaborate full Vehicle Graphics. That is a wide range, and you have all sorts of in-between options in that range for Vehicle vinyl wraps!
