Can a Car Wrap Be Applied After Painting?

[LaGenesis]

Yes, a car wrap can be applied after painting, but it is essential to wait until the paint has completely dried before installing the paint protection film. This process typically takes about three days. Automotive Painting Process: First, thoroughly clean the car's surface to remove dust and debris, and determine the repair technique. Apply grease to the area to be painted. Select appropriate sandpaper to sand the area that needs painting, ensuring all paint is smoothed out. After removing all the paint, apply putty to fill in imperfections. Once the putty is applied, use an air gun to blow away dust and debris to prevent paint splatter. Then, spray the pre-mixed paint in 3-5 layers. After the paint dries, sand and smooth any uneven areas for a natural finish. Post-Painting Precautions: A few days after painting, the paint surface should be stable. Avoid washing the car or exposing it to chemicals and grease immediately after painting, as these can damage the fresh paint. Avoid covering the newly painted surface with a car wrap, as it may cause fine scratches. Park the car in sunlight as much as possible, which helps the paint dry and allows you to assess the quality of the paint job.
