Wrapping Door shuts and sills

Posted under Car wrapping on

A popular request from many of our customers is to extend the wrapping to change the colour of the inner sections. We refer to this as wrapping the door shuts and sills.

 

Wrapping of the cars door shuts and door sills is always available at Wrapvehicles, however we always like to advise to avoid wrapping these areas unless your existing paint colour is going to be clashing or highly contrasting the new wrapped colour.

For example if your car is metallic black and you are having the body wrapped in Red, we would recommend that the door shuts and sills do not need wrapping.

Wrapvehicles charge between £250 and £400 per door to wrap these areas, so we only recommend wrapping door shuts if absolutely necessary, if the colour door shut areas will not strongly contrast the wrapped body it is a waste of money and labour time.

 

The costs for wrapping the door shuts and sills is high as to wrap these areas to a professional standard the doors need to be removed from the vehicle, and additional sections need to be de-trimmed. Also each door shut area is usually wrapped in one piece of vinyl, so there is a large amount of wastage of vinyl that has to be charged for.

 

Wrapvehicles usally recommends that the door shuts and door sills do not need to be wrapped if your car is currently painted in one of these colours:

  • Black
  • Dark Grey
  • Silver
  • White

Silver and white in most cases do not offer a strong enouhg contrast against other colours to make the lack of wrap in these areas noticeable.

 

If you car is currently painted in a bold colour such as bright red or bright blue, and you are not having it wrapped in a similar colour (for example red metallic being wrapped in satin red), then we would always suggest wrapping the door shuts to complete the wrap.

Our matte wraps are a variation of our gloss wrap vinyls and are perfect for customers looking for something different. Our matte wrap is not available in as many colours as our gloss wraps, but the ones we do have are very interesting. In our standard ranges we have white matte, black matte and then in the premium range we have satin silver, satin grey and satin black. The satins have a subtle sheen on them and come across with a little more depth than standard matte vinyls.

With our matte car wrap range you'll be able to create a subtle design that suits your car from just one colour. Our satin matte wraps add an extra element of luxury to any vehicle and look spectacular when paired with metallic colours, gloss black or glossy white.

Matte wraps are a great alternative to gloss or satin wraps. They give a much higher ‘3 dimensional’ look which can add a real wow factor to your car. Here at Car Wraps Manchester we have some fantastic colours available in matte finishes. Due to the nature of the vinyl we also make sure that your vehicle wrap is protected with our long life protective coating so that it will not show any stains or marks!
