I want an external long lasting sign what do you recommend?

We recommend that we use an ACM (metal) sign with our 5 year digital print and laminate.

How long do your signs last??

Our long-term signage solution depends on the location of the sign. Generally, the lifespan will last 5-10 years.
Dependent on materials / colours used you may notice fading or other discrepancies around the 4 year mark.
We suggest that all signage is changed at about 5 years of age – we find that this is a good time to relook at the design and update to suit.

Six months workmanship warranty, 12 months Material fault-we can offer an extended warranty as per job basis when asked by the client (before acceptance of the job by the client and confirmed in writing)

Small Car – 2 Door Coupe $3,500 to $4,000+gst
Medium Car – Sedan / Small SUV $4,000 to $5,000+gst
Large Car – Large SUV /4WD $4,500 to $6,000+gst

Plus Variations

What is the lifespan of a car wrap?

The lifespan of a car wrap is usually around five year (depending on how it’s looked after). At JT Designs, you get a peace of mind guarantee, with a six-month workmanship warranty and a 12-month material warranty. We also inspect your car for free three weeks after your car wrapping appointment to make sure everything is looking slick.

Will wrap go over damaged paint, or clear coat failing??

We would never wrap over damaged panels straight up; we would go over your car with your permission to sand and feather out any imperfections before wrapping (at extra cost). This would however void our workmanship and product fault warranty. 

Will vinyl wrap protect my paintwork?

Yes, to a degree. If we’re doing full coverage of a car it will keep the paint as good as the day we put it on the car (as long as it’s looked after, and its removed/ replaced as required). Wraps are still prone to stone chips as is paint but will still give it a bit of extra protection. We do offer PPF (paint protection film) which is more suitable if your wanting ultimate protection for your car. We can also put PPF over wrap.

What brands do you use?

We mainly use 3M, Orafol, KPMF or Avery. There are loads of other brands out there so if there is a certain colour you are after, let us know the brand/colour and we can price accordingly.

What warranty do you offer on car wraps?

We offer a 6 month warranty on workmanship and a 12 month warranty on material faults on all our vehicle wrap / signage.

Will you sponsor our team?

Currently we are at capacity regarding sponsorship, more than happy to take enquires, but at this stage we don’t have enough time.

Do you do Dirt Bike kits/ATVs?

The plastics on Dirt Bikes and ATVs are a lot different to our standard panels that we’re wrapping with cars, so therefore we can’t do colour change on these items, but we can however apply sticker kits purchased from online retailers.
