Charcoal Vinyl Wraps

Often confused with gray, charcoal is one of the most versatile colors. Gray is a mixture of white and black, but charcoal has a hint of blue added to it giving it a richer texture.  Pairing charcoal wraps with midnight black accents gives a clean and athetic look or you can pair it with wraped coral rims and pin stripes. Another complementary vinyl wrap is a deep purple to create a decadent, exotic-forward vibe, or combine charcoal with airy whites and soft grays for a modern feel. Nearly every bright color pairs beautifully with charcoal, making it perfect for almost every palette. Nonetheless, charcoal works best in a secondary role that amps up a bright accent color. It communicates strength and mystery, much like black, and, due to its widespread use in modern interior décor, is associated with clean, minimalist design.

Symbolism of Charcoal

Charcoal gray is a cool, neutral, and balanced color. Often seen as either an emotionless or  brooding color that is typically associated with meanings of dull, dirty, and dingy it can also be seen, almost oxymoronicallys, as formal, conservative, and sophisticated.

How Long Will Charcoal Vehicle Wraps Last?

Charcoal car wraps can last for up to 8 years under normal conditions but you should check the specs on each film before buying. We also recommend that you remove and apply new vinyl wraps every three years. The reason for this is that the vinyl will be much easier to remove in a single piece.

Naturally, ease of installation depends on how experienced you are installing vinyl wraps but boat, car and motorcycle wraps feature air-release adhesives certainly makes it easier. As we mentioned above, its thickness and air-release adhesives give you a lot of margin for error so even the most inexperienced, DIY wrappers and installers should be able to get professional looking results if they follow the basic guidelines for wrap installation.
