Racine Vehicle Graphics Company
Road Rage Designs has been transforming vehicles in Racine and throughout Wisconsin for over 20 years. We’ve wrapped hundreds of cars, trucks, vans, and commercial fleets for local businesses who understand the power of mobile advertising.
Our team holds 3M and PDAA certifications – the gold standard in the vinyl industry. This isn’t weekend hobby work. We’re trained professionals who know how to handle complex curves, challenging surfaces, and demanding deadlines.
Racine businesses choose Road Rage Designs because we deliver what we promise: flawless installation, durable materials, and wraps that look professional year after year.

Car Wrap Installation Process
The process starts with understanding your goals and measuring your vehicle. Our design team creates custom graphics that fit your brand and budget, whether you want a full wrap, partial coverage, or simple lettering.
Once you approve the design, we print everything on premium 3M vinyl using state-of-the-art equipment. The vinyl is then laminated for extra protection against weather, scratches, and fading.
Installation day requires a clean, dry vehicle – we recommend washing it the day before and keeping it indoors. Our certified installers prep the surface, remove necessary trim pieces, and carefully apply each section. Most cars take 7-9 hours. Larger vehicles might need two days. When we’re done, your vehicle looks like it rolled off a custom showroom floor.

How long do car wraps last in Wisconsin weather?
Quality vinyl wraps typically last 5-8 years when properly installed and maintained. Wisconsin’s climate can be challenging with harsh winters, hot summers, and UV exposure, but premium 3M vinyl is specifically designed to handle these conditions.
The key is professional installation and quality materials. Road Rage Designs uses only 3M and other top-tier vinyl that’s engineered for durability. Proper surface preparation and certified installation techniques ensure the wrap adheres correctly and resists lifting, bubbling, or premature fading.
Regular washing and avoiding automatic car washes with brushes will help maximize your wrap’s lifespan. Most clients see their wraps looking great well beyond the 5-year mark with basic care.
Will a car wrap damage my vehicle's paint?
Professional-grade vinyl wraps actually protect your original paint rather than damage it. The vinyl acts as a barrier against rock chips, minor scratches, UV rays, and road salt – all common causes of paint damage in Wisconsin.
When it’s time to remove the wrap, a trained installer uses proper heat and techniques to peel it off cleanly. Your original paint underneath will often look better than when the wrap was first applied because it’s been protected from the elements.
The adhesive used on quality vinyl is designed to bond well during the wrap’s life but remove cleanly when heated properly. DIY removal or using cheap vinyl can cause problems, which is why professional installation and removal are essential.
How much does a full car wrap cost?
Full car wrap pricing typically ranges from $2,500 to $5,000 depending on the vehicle size, design complexity, and coverage area. This is significantly less expensive than a quality paint job, which can cost $5,000 to $15,000 or more.
Partial wraps and simple lettering start much lower, often under $1,000. Fleet discounts are available for multiple vehicles, making the per-vehicle cost even more affordable for businesses with several cars or trucks.
The investment pays for itself through increased business visibility and customer calls. Unlike monthly advertising expenses, a vehicle wrap is a one-time cost that works for years. Most business owners see their wrap generate new customers within the first few months.
Can you wrap trucks and commercial vehicles?
Absolutely. Road Rage Designs specializes in commercial vehicle wraps including pickup trucks, cargo vans, box trucks, trailers, and even semi-trucks. We’ve wrapped hundreds of commercial vehicles for Racine area businesses over the past 20 years.
Commercial wraps often include specific requirements like DOT numbers, company contact information, and professional branding that builds customer confidence. Our team understands these needs and designs wraps that look professional while meeting regulatory requirements.
Fleet graphics are a specialty. Whether you have 3 vehicles or 30, we can create consistent branding across your entire fleet. Package pricing makes fleet wraps more affordable, and we can often handle multiple vehicles simultaneously to minimize your business downtime.
How do I maintain my vehicle wrap?
Maintaining a vehicle wrap is straightforward and similar to caring for quality paint. Regular washing with soap and water keeps it looking fresh. Hand washing or touchless car washes work best – avoid automatic washes with brushes that can lift edges or cause scratches.
For stubborn dirt or road salt, use a soft cloth and mild detergent. You can wax most wraps, but check with your installer first since some specialty finishes have different care requirements. Avoid pressure washing directly on seams or edges where water could get underneath.
Park in shade when possible to minimize UV exposure, though quality vinyl is designed to resist fading. Small scratches in the laminate often disappear with gentle heat from a hair dryer. Professional wrap care products are available, but regular car care supplies work fine for routine maintenance.
Do you offer design services or do I need my own graphics?
Road Rage Designs provides complete design services from concept to installation. Our experienced design team can create custom graphics that match your brand, or we can work with logos and artwork you already have.
The design process includes understanding your business, target customers, and goals for the wrap. We’ll show you different layout options, color schemes, and coverage levels to find what works best for your budget and objectives.
If you already have a design or brand guidelines, we can adapt those to work perfectly on your specific vehicle. Our designers understand how graphics need to flow around curves, door handles, and other vehicle features to look professional and avoid awkward breaks in text or images.
