Digitally Printable Films (Vehicle Wraps)

Design

Our flat Design Fee includes 3 hours design time and up to 3 revisions. Addition design work is available at a rate of $100 per hour. Clients are welcome to provide a mockup of a design, but we must still charge the flat design fee for setting up the wrap for print.

Please provide all branded assets and guidelines to ensure we meet the standards for your brand. We also require all images and graphic elements to be high resolution.

Proofing

Once the design is complete, we create a proof of the wrap for you to review.

It’s important to carefully examine the proof for any mistakes you find and immediately note any changes you want made to the final wrap before printing. Any changes you have after the wrap goes into final production can delay turnaround and add significantly to your costs.

Appointment

Project installation date/time will be mutually agreed upon by Client and Baker Design and Detail. If Client fails to notify of a missed installation appointment within 72 hours, a $200 “Missed Appointment” fee will be added to Client “Final Invoice”.

We require a 50% down payment to begin your project.

Pre-Inspection

During the inspection, a wrap technician will carefully look over the vehicle's body to look for gouges, rust, or any other issues that could affect the finished product.

We also look for any accessories added to the exterior of the vehicle that may cause an obstruction to the install. In some instances, an additional fee will incur for removal of accessories.

Surface Prep

Before we can begin installing your wrap, your vehicle needs to be thoroughly cleaned so that the wrap will adhere properly. A high-pressure car wash that uses powerful detergents should clean off most grime and debris.

Trim Removal

The removal of Emblems, Trim, and any External Accessories that should not be covered by the wrap, will incur an additional labor rate.

This will be different for every vehicle, so this can be estimated before the job is started.

Printing

The finished design is printed in very high resolution onto 52 inch-wide vinyl panels using a large-format printer. Full vehicle wraps are typically printed in multiple panels and carefully pieced together during installation. We carefully align the vinyl panels to ensure proper fit and applies them to the vehicle.

Laminating

A premium quality, ultra-thin, ultra-conformable cast vinyl film is laminated to the print, creating a super smooth high gloss finish which provides an overall paint like finish of printed graphics.

Installation

The installer uses a heat gun to stretch and reposition the vinyl, and a squeegee to eliminate imperfections.

Trimming

It’s important to note that installers rely on sharp razors to manipulate the vinyl and remove excess material around door handles and crevices. Even with experienced installers, vinyl application is not a perfect process. As industry standard with vinyl application, there is potential for minor imperfections such as nicks, scratches, or bubbling to show on the final product.

After Care

To keep the wrap clean, hand wash the vehicle regularly with soap, water, and a clean rag. Avoid high-pressure or bristle-based car washes that could lift up or tear the wrap, as well as waxes that could remove the laminate or minimize the wrap’s adhesion.
