Full Dip primers come in black, dark grey and light grey. A primer gives your colour coats an even base, which helps most when you are changing from a dark colour to a light one or the reverse.

Choosing between Full Dip primers

Picking a Full Dip spray wrap primer shade

Match the Full Dip spray wrap primer to your top colour. Light grey suits whites, yellows and pale shades; dark grey works under mid tones; black supports deep colours. Getting the base close means fewer colour coats and a more even result, especially on surfaces that started as a very different shade.

When a liquid wrap primer is needed

Not every job needs a liquid wrap primer. If the original surface is already close to the colour you want, you may be able to go straight to colour coats. Priming earns its place when covering high-contrast bases, multi-coloured parts or small areas where any patchiness would be obvious. Ask if unsure.

Full Dip car wrap primer: application tips

Lay down a Full Dip car wrap primer in light, even coats after cleaning and degreasing the surface. Let it flash off before your colour goes on, and keep coats thin at edges where build-up is easiest to see. If you are unsure of your technique, test on a spare part first.

Ask us which Full Dip primers suit your project by calling 01603 407786 or getting in touch, and tell us the starting colour and the target colour.

Questions.

What is liquid wrapping?

A sprayed-on, peelable coating that changes the colour or finish of a vehicle or its parts without a permanent respray. It forms a flexible layer that can be peeled off later.

Can liquid wrap be removed?

Yes. It is designed to peel off without damaging the original paintwork underneath, provided that paint is in sound, factory condition.

How do I choose between Budget, Standard, Premium and Ultra?

They differ in how much is removed and masked (handles, mirrors, lights) and in the finish. Tell us the vehicle and the look you want and we will recommend one.

Can I spray it myself?

Yes. Our shop sells Full Dip liquid wrap colours, primers and glossifier for DIY projects, or we can do the work for you at our Norwich workshop.
