How long does RAXTiFY vinyl wrap last?
Wrap lifespan depends on multiple factors, including:

Does storage affect wrap lifespan?
Parking in interior parts or shaded parking areas mean a lot of less exposure to UV and environmental pressure.In case of an indoor storage, a breathable car cover will be recommended, as it will be helpful to maintain the quality of the finish and increase the wrap lifespan.
