Wraps follow the shape of your vehicle. So if there’s a dent, the vinyl will dip into that area — not hide it.
A new, clean wrap can make dings stand out more because everything else looks so pristine.
If the dents are small and in limited spots, and you’re using a busy design or matte finish, you can visually reduce how noticeable the dents are.
Matte or satin finishes reflect less light, which helps mask contours like dents and dings.
If the vehicle has multiple imperfections or sharp paint edges, the wrap will just highlight the flaws or even fail to adhere properly.
Wraps need solid, clean, smooth surfaces to stick well and last long.
Light scratches? The wrap will usually cover and improve the look.
Deep scratches or chips? These need to be smoothed or repaired first, especially if sharp edges could cut or lift the vinyl.
Fix dents or dings if they bother you, especially large or sharp ones.
Smooth out or repair chipped paint, rust spots, and deep scratches.
Remember: A wrap doesn’t fix — it covers. So what’s underneath still matters.
