Colour Change Wrap.

A new colour. Without the paint.

Full-vehicle colour change or partial vinyl wraps in any finish — gloss, satin, matte, brushed, chrome, colour-shift. A complete repaint experience without touching your original paint. Faster than respray, fully reversible, and at the right film grade, hard to tell from a factory finish.

What's included

Every colour change wrap includes.

  • Full disassembly for true factory-style wrap (panels off, not around)
  • Premium cast vinyl from 3M, Avery Dennison and ZR Films
  • Door jambs, boot lip, bonnet underside fully wrapped
  • Emblems removed and re-installed
  • Headlight, taillight and trim de-blacking if requested
  • Documentation of original colour for insurance and resale
  • Maintains factory paint warranty (film is removable)
  • Partial wraps available (roof, bonnet, accents)

Why book this with us

The honest version.

A factory paint job is hard to beat — until you want to drive a colour the factory didn't offer. We wrap to factory-disassembly standard so the result reads as paint, not a wrap. When you sell, peel it back and the car is original. Insurance is happier. So is the next owner. And we only install premium cast films from 3M, Avery and ZR Films — not the cheap stuff that lifts in a Melbourne summer.

Typical duration

3–7 days for a full vehicle

Colour Change Wrap · FAQ

The questions we get most.

Why wrap instead of repaint?
Faster (a week vs three to six weeks for a quality respray), reversible (peel back to original for resale), keeps the factory paint warranty intact, costs roughly 40–60% of a quality respray, and avoids the resale stigma of an aftermarket paint job. The downside: vinyl isn't as scratch-resistant as paint — but you can PPF over the wrap for that.
How factory does the finish actually look?
With premium cast film and panel disassembly, a colour change wrap is very hard to distinguish from a factory paint job at arm's length. Up close, an experienced eye can spot the film edges at panel shut lines. Most owners and most buyers can't.
Cast vs calendered vinyl — what's the difference?
Cast vinyl is the only film grade worth installing on a full vehicle wrap. It's thinner, more conformable, doesn't shrink, and lasts 7–10 years. Calendered vinyl is half the price and shrinks within 18 months — fine for flat commercial signage, wrong for a prestige car. We only install cast film from 3M, Avery and ZR Films.
How long before I can wash the car after a wrap?
Wait 7 days before any wash. The adhesive needs that time to fully cure. After 7 days you're back to normal — hand wash with pH-neutral shampoo, no brush washes.
Will the new colour devalue the car?
Polarising colour choices (lime green, baby pink) can affect appeal at resale. Factory-style colours (satin black, gunmetal, deep blue, classic white) usually don't — sometimes they help. Either way, the original paint is preserved and the wrap is removable.
