Do vehicle wraps damage the paintwork?
Your vehicle wrap should not damage your paintwork. That said, if the paintwork is in poor condition or was incorrectly applied, this could lead to issues. Contour cut vinyl can sometimes lead to a ghosting effect from the sun on the unexposed areas, which is often removed with buffing or a detail.
