What to use on vehicles with wraps
What are the best products to use when a vehicle has been wrapped with graphics?
Thanks for any help with this.

While I've never done one I suspect the wraps are soft so a rinseless wash, dry, then a spray wax might work well for you..

Did you talk with the wrap manufacturer? They probably know what is best for their product. Let us know.

Your normal car care products are fine( car shampoo/soap, wash mitt, drying towels) and safest protectant would be a spray wax, like Bobby G said..

I have some matte vinyl on my car, wash like i normally would anything, if its not matte but gloss vinyl you can use a pure chemical cleaner if you want to. You can wax or use sealant as you normally would on it, just take care on the edges as it tends to collect wax/sealant. When buff just buff around the edges and that will take care of it, and a q-tip works great for some areas that are still not buffing away.

Good point Ank! UPGP is a great WOWA sealant I use on clear bras for this reason.
