Before we delve into the specifics of caring for your wall wraps, let's explore the use cases and considerations for choosing between spot graphics and custom prints.

Choosing Between Spot Graphics and Custom Prints:

Spot Graphics:

‍Spot graphics are pre-dyed at the factory, offering vibrant and resilient designs right out of the box. This option is ideal for those seeking a quick and effective solution with inherent protection against fading. Consider spot graphics for:

• Bold and Durable Designs: If you desire eye-catching graphics that are inherently resistant to fading, spot graphics are an excellent choice.
• Efficiency in Installation: Spot graphics are ready to go, requiring minimal installation time. This makes them a convenient option for those seeking a swift transformation.
• Cost-Effective Impact: For a cost-effective yet impactful solution, spot graphics provide an excellent balance between affordability and visual appeal.
• Single Color Designs: For single color logos, this is perfect. You're able to efficiently install a logo on your wall that will last you years.

Custom Prints:

‍Custom printed wall wraps offer unparalleled personalization, allowing you to bring your unique vision to life. Laminated for added protection, custom prints are an ideal choice for those with specific design requirements. Consider custom prints for:

• Personalized Aesthetics: If you have a specific design or branding in mind, custom prints allow you to showcase your individual style and creativity.
• Long-Term Durability: The lamination on custom prints provides an extra layer of protection, ensuring longevity and resistance to wear and tear.
• Branding and Marketing: Businesses looking to enhance their brand presence or create a distinctive atmosphere can benefit from the tailored approach of custom prints.

Regardless of whether you're looking for just a graphic for your wall, or wrapping the whole wall, our in-house designers are able to help. From start to finish, we work with you to create a design that is an embodiment of your vision that you'll be proud to have.

Care Tips for Wall Wraps:

Before we delve into specific care instructions, it's essential to understand the basics of wall wraps. Sun Control of Minnesota employs high-quality materials for both spot graphics and custom prints. Custom prints are laminated, providing a protective layer in either gloss or matte finish, while spot graphics come factory-dyed, offering inherent protection against fading.

• Gentle Cleaning: Use a mild detergent and water solution to clean the surface of the wall wrap. Avoid abrasive cleaners or rough materials that could damage the lamination.
• Regular Inspections: Periodically inspect the wraps for any signs of peeling or lifting. If any issues are detected, address them promptly to prevent further damage.
• Avoid Direct Sunlight: While the custom prints are laminated for protection, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can still impact their vibrancy over time. Consider using curtains or blinds to minimize sunlight exposure. If you plan on having it against a window, let your rep know, and we'll help you find window film that will reject up to 99% of UV to increase the lifespan of your wall graphic.
• Routine Cleaning for Spot Graphics: Clean spot graphics regularly with a mild detergent and water mixture. This helps to remove dust and dirt, preventing any potential peeling.
• Handle with Care: Avoid using sharp objects or abrasive materials when handling spot graphics. Gentle care during installation and maintenance will ensure their longevity. Even with the laminate, anything sharp will leave a scratch. It might not be noticeable from a distance, but depending on the reflection of the light, you'll be able to see it.

General Tips for All Wall Wraps:

‍Regardless of the type of wall wrap, there are some universal care tips to keep in mind:

• Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Refrain from using harsh chemicals or solvents, as they can damage the graphics or lamination.
• Mindful Installation: Proper installation is the first step in ensuring the longevity of your wall wraps. Our team has decades of experience, and we will conduct repairs if anything's wrong within the first few days, so you won't have to worry about it. For self-installs, you're going to have to be careful and make sure to post-heat to prevent the vinyl from pealing off.
• Prompt Repairs: If any damage or issues arise, address them promptly. Timely repairs can prevent further deterioration and extend the lifespan of your wall wraps.
