Rwraps™ Satin Wrap Films

Rwraps™ Satin Vinyl Wraps

Way back in the day, the only time you'd see anything approaching a satin finish was when someone had primed their car or truck before painting it. Jump to the 21st century, and the satin look is enjoying a bit of a moment among car enthusiasts. The satin, dipped look is all the rage right now, but what's the difference between satin and matte vinyl wraps? And how can you customize your car to stay on trend?

Matte versus Satin Film

Also known as flat, matte finishes have a low gloss percentage. In other words, matte vinyl doesn't reflect much light. Due to this, they are excellent for hiding any surface imperfections on the area to be wrapped. Despite this, they are the most challenging type of finish to clean, so a matte finish is best suited for areas with less traffic.

Satin vinyl finishes are a bit glossier than matte. Satin film is durable and easy to clean, making it applicable to various high traffic areas like interior trim and dash wraps. Besides the interior , the satin finish can also be used outside as complete color change or partial wraps due to its more resilient nature. Since cleaning it is relatively straightforward, satin is the best finish for high-traffic areas. However, it must be carefully applied because it doesn't hide imperfections very well.

Applications for Satin Vinyl Car Wraps

Vinyl car wraps have revolutionized the ways you can enhance your vehicle. In just minutes, you can instantly improve the style of nearly any make, model and year. If complete vehicle customization is the name of the game, you can't go wrong applying matte vinyl wraps to any element of your car.

• Partial Wraps: Sometimes, less is more. Instead of wrapping the entire car, you can dial it back a little and complete a partial wrap. Choose which areas of your ride you want to accent the original color. This option is fantastic for those who want to inject a lot of style without devoting much money to the project.
• Roofs: A roof-only vinyl wrap may seem out of place, but trust us. At first glance, you'll see how well it contrasts with the rest of your vehicle.
• Interior Dash Wraps:You may not want to tweak much of your interior, but the dash is one area you could immediately improve with an easy vinyl wrap upgrade.
• Hoods: Anchor your car in the front and the rear with the sporty look of vinyl wrap on the hood or trunk.
• Pillar Trim: Attention to detail makes a ride stand out. Using vinyl wraps on your mirror or pillar trim is a cost-effective way to add a touch of style in a small, yet substantial, way.

Whether you're completing a whole interior and exterior makeover or adding a few style tweaks here and there, you can instantly improve the look of your ride with matte vinyl wraps.

To install a satin vinyl wrap, you'll need a heat gun, a utility knife and some taping supplies, as well as a little skill and patience. An extra set of hands wouldn't hurt, either, if it's your first time. To begin, thoroughly wash the area you plan on wrapping. Whether it's the interior or the exterior, you want to ensure there's no wax, debris or any other residue. Remove rust or other imperfections as well.

When you've covered an area completely, cut the excess off with your utility knife.
