Custom Vehicle Wraps Tichigan
Imagine your car or truck generating thousands of impressions every single day without any additional effort from you. That’s exactly what happens when you invest in professional vehicle wraps.
Your wrapped vehicle becomes a mobile billboard that works 24/7, reaching potential customers while you’re driving to work, parked at the grocery store, or sitting in traffic. Unlike traditional advertising that you pay for monthly, a quality wrap keeps marketing your business for years.
The numbers don’t lie. Studies show that vehicle graphics can generate 30,000 to 70,000 daily impressions, making them one of the most cost-effective advertising methods available. Your investment pays for itself through increased brand visibility and customer inquiries that traditional advertising simply can’t match.
Professional Car Wrap Installation
We’ve been perfecting the art of vehicle wraps since 1992. What started as a passion for transforming vehicles has grown into one of the most trusted names in the Illinois and Wisconsin wrap industry.
We’re not just another sign shop trying to do wraps on the side. We’re 3M and PDAA certified installers who’ve wrapped hundreds of vehicles for businesses throughout Northern Illinois and Southern Wisconsin, including many satisfied customers in the Tichigan area.
Our Spring Grove facility houses state-of-the-art printing equipment and a team that understands the unique challenges Wisconsin weather presents to vehicle wraps. We know which materials hold up to harsh winters and which installation techniques ensure your wrap looks pristine for years, not months.
Vehicle Wrap Installation Process
The process starts with understanding exactly what you want to achieve with your wrap. Are you looking to advertise your business, protect your paint, or completely transform your vehicle’s appearance? We listen to your goals and budget to recommend the right approach.
Next, our design team creates mockups that show exactly how your wrap will look. We don’t move forward until you’re completely satisfied with the design. This isn’t about rushing you through our process – it’s about making sure you get exactly what you envisioned.
Installation happens in our controlled environment where temperature and humidity are optimized for perfect adhesion. We prepare your vehicle’s surface meticulously, removing any wax or contaminants that could compromise the wrap’s longevity. The actual installation typically takes 1-3 days depending on the complexity of your design.
Before you drive away, we inspect every inch of the wrap to ensure it meets our standards and yours. We also provide care instructions to help you maintain that showroom appearance for years to come.

Full Vehicle Wrap Services
We handle everything from simple fleet lettering to complex full-vehicle color changes. Our services include full wraps, partial wraps, fleet graphics, custom designs, and paint protection film installation.
Tichigan businesses particularly appreciate our commercial vehicle wrap expertise. Whether you’re running a local service company that needs professional fleet branding or operating a food truck that needs eye-catching graphics, we understand the unique marketing challenges small Wisconsin communities face.
Our material selection includes options for every budget and application. Premium cast vinyl for vehicles with complex curves, calendered vinyl for flat surfaces and temporary applications, and specialized films for unique textures like carbon fiber or brushed metal finishes.
We also offer paint protection film for Tichigan car enthusiasts who want to preserve their vehicle’s factory finish while adding a subtle custom touch. These clear films protect against rock chips, scratches, and UV damage while maintaining your car’s original appearance.
How long do car wraps last in Wisconsin weather?
Quality vehicle wraps installed properly typically last 5-8 years in Wisconsin’s challenging climate. The key is using premium materials designed for extreme temperature fluctuations and UV exposure.
We exclusively use high-grade vinyl from manufacturers like 3M and Avery Dennison that are specifically engineered to withstand harsh winters and intense summer sun. These materials maintain their color and adhesion through multiple freeze-thaw cycles that are common in the Tichigan area.
Proper installation is just as important as material quality. Our certified installers ensure every edge is sealed and every curve is properly heated and formed to prevent moisture infiltration that can cause premature failure in Wisconsin’s wet spring seasons.
Can I wrap a leased vehicle without voiding the warranty?
Yes, vehicle wraps are completely removable and actually protect your lease vehicle’s original paint. Most lease companies prefer wrapped vehicles because they’re returned in better condition than unwrapped ones.
Professional-grade vinyl removes cleanly without damaging the underlying paint, assuming it was applied correctly to begin with. This is why choosing an experienced installer like us matters – improper installation can cause removal issues.
We’ve helped dozens of Tichigan area customers wrap lease vehicles for business advertising. When the lease ends, we can remove the wrap to reveal paint that’s often in better condition than when the wrap was installed, since it’s been protected from UV rays, minor scratches, and environmental contaminants.
What's the cost difference between wrapping and painting my vehicle?
Professional paint jobs typically cost $2,000-$10,000 depending on the quality and complexity, while professional wraps range from $1,500-$5,000 for most vehicles. But the real value difference goes beyond initial cost.
Paint is permanent – if you want to change colors or designs later, you’re starting over with another expensive paint job. Wraps can be removed and replaced, giving you flexibility to update your look or return to the original finish.
Wraps also offer design possibilities that paint simply cannot match. Complex graphics, photographic images, textured finishes, and color-changing effects are all possible with modern wrap materials. Try getting a carbon fiber paint job for the same price as a carbon fiber wrap – it’s not even close.
Do vehicle wraps damage my car's original paint?
Properly installed and removed vehicle wraps do not damage original paint – they actually protect it. The vinyl acts as a barrier against UV rays, minor scratches, bird droppings, and other environmental hazards.
The key word is “properly.” Cheap vinyl or poor installation can cause problems, which is why we only use premium materials and certified installation techniques. We’ve been doing this for over 30 years and have never had a properly installed wrap damage original paint during removal.
In fact, many of our Tichigan customers are surprised to discover their paint looks better after wrap removal than it did before installation. The wrap has protected the original finish from years of wear and fading that would have occurred naturally.
How do I maintain my vehicle wrap to maximize its lifespan?
Maintaining a vehicle wrap is actually easier than maintaining paint, but there are specific do’s and don’ts that can significantly impact longevity. Regular washing is important, but the technique matters more than frequency.
Hand washing or touchless car washes are best. Avoid brush car washes that can catch wrap edges and cause lifting. Use mild soap and avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that can damage the vinyl’s surface.
Park in shade when possible, especially during Wisconsin’s intense summer months. While our premium materials are UV-resistant, prolonged direct sunlight will eventually cause any wrap to fade. Covered parking or even regular use of car covers can extend wrap life significantly.
Can you match my company's exact brand colors in the wrap?
Absolutely. Color matching is one of our specialties, and we understand how critical brand consistency is for Tichigan businesses building recognition in their community.
We use professional color calibration equipment and work with Pantone color standards to ensure your wrap colors match your existing marketing materials exactly. Our design team can also work with your brand guidelines to maintain consistent fonts, logos, and design elements.
If you have existing branded materials like business cards, brochures, or signage, bring them in during your consultation. We’ll match not just the colors but the overall brand feel to ensure your wrapped vehicle reinforces your professional image rather than conflicting with it.
