At Kartal Auto, we recently completed a custom vehicle wrap on a stunning Lamborghini Silhouette in Dubai. Wrapping this iconic luxury car presented unique challenges, but our team of experts was able to identify and address several key issues to ensure a flawless finish. Below are the 5 main issues we found during the wrapping process and the solutions we implemented to ensure the Lamborghini Silhouette looked exceptional and protected.
Issue Found:
1. Uneven Paint Surface
Issue: The Lamborghini Silhouette’s paint had slight imperfections and unevenness in certain areas, which could affect how the wrap adhered to the surface.
Solution: We performed a paint correction and smoothened out the surface to ensure it was flawless before applying the wrap. This step ensured that the vinyl adhered properly, creating a smooth and even finish with no visible imperfections beneath the wrap.
2. Air Bubbles and Wrinkles During Application
Issue: During the wrapping process, air bubbles and minor wrinkles were forming on some areas, which can disrupt the smooth application of the vinyl.
Solution: Our team used specialized tools and techniques, including heat guns and squeegees, to carefully smooth out the vinyl and remove any trapped air bubbles or wrinkles. This ensured a seamless, tight application of the wrap, free from imperfections, while also allowing the material to adhere firmly to the vehicle’s curves.
3. Challenging Curves and Complex Areas
Issue: The Lamborghini Silhouette’s complex curves and intricate body lines posed a challenge for applying the wrap, especially in areas like the bumpers and side mirrors.
Solution: We used precision cutting and custom fitting techniques, carefully applying the wrap around the car’s contours. Our team took extra time to ensure the vinyl was expertly wrapped around the curves and edges, ensuring a perfect fit and a clean look without any misalignment.
4. Protection from the Harsh Dubai Sun
Issue: Dubai’s intense sun can cause vehicle wraps to fade or peel over time, making long-term durability a concern for the Lamborghini Silhouette.
Solution: We applied premium quality, UV-resistant vinyl that is designed to withstand harsh sun exposure. The wrap’s protective layer also provides a shield against potential fading, ensuring the vehicle’s new look remains vibrant and intact for an extended period, even in the challenging Dubai climate.
5. Lack of Protection for the Underlying Paint
Issue: Without proper protection, the Lamborghini’s original paint could be susceptible to damage, such as scratches or chips, beneath the wrap.
Solution: We first applied a protective clear film over the paint before the wrapping process to act as a barrier against potential damage. This extra layer of protection ensures the original paint remains intact when the wrap is eventually removed, preserving the vehicle’s value and appearance.
