Warranty & Disclaimer

At Car Wrap Naperville, we stand behind the quality of our work and the premium materials we use. To ensure you have full clarity on what is covered, please review our warranty and disclaimer details below.

Vinyl Wrap Warranty

Paint Protection Film (PPF) Warranty

We proudly install FlexiShield, XPEL, and other premium PPF films.

  • Gloss, Matte, or Color PPF:
    Up to 10 years warranty (manufacturer + our installation warranty).

  • Self-Healing Properties:
    PPF is designed to self-heal against minor swirl marks and surface scratches. However, deep scratches, rock chips, or key scratches are not covered.

Important Warranty Conditions & Exclusions

  1. Paint Condition

    • Wraps and PPF do not cover paint defects such as peeling, chips, oxidation, or rust.

    • If paint is weak, old, or repainted improperly, removal of vinyl/PPF may result in paint damage.

  2. Weather Exposure (Illinois Conditions)

    • Our climate (sun, road salt, freezing winters) can affect wrap/PPF longevity.

    • Regular maintenance is required to maximize lifespan.

  3. Car Wash & Maintenance

    • Hand washing with pH-neutral soap is recommended.

    • Drive-thru car washes with brushes are not recommended as they can damage vinyl or PPF.

    • Avoid harsh chemicals, pressure washers on edges, and abrasive scrubbing.

  4. Surface Protection

    • Ceramic coating is highly recommended for both wraps and PPF for added UV, chemical, and stain resistance.

    • Cheap waxes or sealants may affect the film’s surface.

  5. Buffing & Restoration

    • Gloss vinyl wraps can be lightly polished or buffed in the future.

    • Matte or satin wraps cannot be buffed without changing appearance.

  6. Damage Exclusions
    Warranty does not cover:

    • Rock chips, accidents, vandalism, or intentional damage.

    • Key scratches, deep gouges, or cuts.

    • Improper cleaning methods or neglect.

Removal Policy

  • Vinyl wraps and PPF can be safely removed when needed.

  • On hot days, removal is easier, but some adhesive residue may remain and will require cleaning.

Our Recommendation

For best protection and longevity of your investment, we recommend:

  • Full Front PPF Installation – to prevent rock chips and front-end damage.

  • Ceramic Coating – applied over vinyl or PPF for maximum durability and ease of maintenance.

Final Disclaimer

Our warranty covers manufacturer defects and installation workmanship within the specified warranty periods. Longevity depends heavily on maintenance, driving conditions, and exposure to weather. Car Wrap Naperville is not liable for paint damage caused by pre-existing conditions, neglect, or misuse after installation.
