Does a wrap cause damage?
Vehicle wraps should not cause damage, a correctly applied wrap should have minimal to zero usage of knifes when installed. Vinyl wrap is designed to be able to be removed but the very small chance of damaged that can occur when a wrap is removed generally happens because there is an underlaying issue with paint work. Smart repairs, blowin's and resprays can be lifted when the vinyl is taken off this would be a result in that the paint repairs have not got a strong bond to the surface of the vehicle.
