Car Wraps in Burnaby

Burnaby’s oceanic climate means rain, humidity, and temperature variation. Premium 3M and Avery vinyl handles all of it. These materials are specifically engineered to maintain adhesion in wet conditions and resist fading from UV exposure. Our 5- to 7-year warranty covers performance in Burnaby’s typical weather patterns. Proper installation matters just as much as material quality, which is why our experienced installers ensure every edge is sealed and every panel is properly applied. Most wraps continue performing well beyond the warranty period when they receive basic maintenance like regular washing.

Vinyl conforms to your vehicle’s surface, which means imperfections show through the wrap. Deep scratches, dents, or rust spots need addressing before we install vinyl. We evaluate every vehicle before starting work to identify prep requirements. Sometimes minor bodywork or paint correction is necessary to achieve a professional finish. We’d rather delay installation to fix surface issues than deliver a wrap that looks flawed from day one. The goal is a finished product that looks flawless and performs for years.

Vehicle wraps start at $697, with final pricing determined by vehicle size, design complexity, and coverage requirements. A partial wrap on a sedan costs significantly less than a full wrap on a commercial cube van with intricate graphics. We provide detailed quotes after discussing your specific needs and seeing your vehicle. The key comparison isn’t just price against other wrap shops. Consider that one wrap delivers 5-7 years of marketing value with no recurring monthly costs, making the total investment very competitive against traditional advertising over the same period.

Quality vinyl actually protects factory paint from environmental damage. When we remove a wrap years later, the covered paint typically shows less wear than exposed areas because it’s been shielded from rock chips, UV rays, and weather exposure. Professional installation and removal are critical. Improper techniques can cause paint damage, but our experienced installers know how to work with different paint types and conditions. Many clients find their vehicle’s resale value actually improves because the original finish stayed protected under the wrap.

We’ve wrapped virtually every vehicle type operating in Burnaby: compact commuter cars, luxury sedans, work trucks, cargo vans, food trucks, buses, motorcycles, boats, RVs. Different vehicles present unique challenges, but 25 years of experience means we’ve developed solutions for complex curves, unusual surfaces, and challenging installations. If it has paintable surfaces, we can wrap it professionally. That includes vehicles with aftermarket accessories, lifted trucks with modified bodywork, and specialty vehicles that other shops turn away.

Regular maintenance keeps wraps looking fresh for their entire lifespan. Hand washing with pH-neutral soap works best. Touchless automatic car washes are acceptable, but avoid brush-style washes that can lift edges or scratch the vinyl. Don’t use high-pressure water directly on wrap seams or edges. For stubborn residue like tree sap or bird droppings, clean promptly with isopropyl alcohol diluted in water. Avoid petroleum-based cleaners or waxes that can degrade vinyl. The maintenance effort is minimal, but consistency matters more than intensity.

We handle both scenarios. Our in-house design team creates complete wrap designs from basic concepts or brand guidelines. If you already have artwork, we optimize it for vehicle application by adjusting for curves, panel breaks, and ensuring proper resolution. Either way, you’ll see detailed renderings showing exactly how your wrap will look on your specific vehicle model before we start production. This preview stage is critical for catching issues and making adjustments while changes are still easy and free.

Timelines vary based on design complexity and vehicle type. Basic colour changes typically take 3-4 days once we start installation. Complex commercial wraps with detailed graphics might require 5-6 days depending on vehicle size. Design development happens before this timeline and depends on how many revisions you need. We don’t rush quality work. Every wrap receives the time necessary for proper surface prep, precise application, and thorough quality checks before you drive away. When we quote a timeline, we include adequate buffer to ensure quality results.

Our industry-leading 5- to 7-year warranty covers both materials and installation workmanship. If vinyl prematurely fades, peels, or shows installation defects during the warranty period, we address it. This coverage reflects confidence in the premium materials we exclusively use and the expertise of our installation team with their minimum 10 years’ experience. The warranty requires basic maintenance on your part, but normal wear from regular use is covered. We stand behind our work because we’ve proven these wraps perform reliably when installed correctly.

We serve all of Burnaby from our Surrey facility and West Vancouver design office. Whether you’re in densely populated Metrotown or more residential areas like Capitol Hill and Simon Fraser Hills, we provide the same premium service. Distance within Metro Vancouver doesn’t affect our ability to deliver quality results. We’ve wrapped vehicles for clients throughout Burnaby, across Greater Vancouver, and into Alberta through our network. If you’re anywhere in the Lower Mainland, we can coordinate your vehicle wrap project efficiently.
