Areas that have been covered by the wrap material may in fact appear more vibrant and glossier having been protected from the elements by the car wrapping paper. However, poorly cured resprays are more vulnerable so always consult the installer if you have had a respray. Professional removal by a 3M Authorized installer is recommended.
