If well cared for there are cars that have 4+ year old wraps.
Wrap Workz themselves has an ITR which sees track day duties and previously was a daily driver as well. That car has been wrapped for over 2 years and still looks like new when they clean all the rubber and dirt off it.
You have to be diligent with the vinyl; bugs, bird droppings, sap, all that shit needs to be cleaned off immediately.
With my matte vinyl, I feel as though I need to clean my car more often than when I didn't have the vinyl. The difference for me is the time it takes me to clean my car is significantly less. No more waxing, polishing, or long time spent drying.
Now its just hose the thing down, if its really dirty wash her, and hose it off again. If its not really dirty, some ONR in a spray bottle and just wipe her down super quick.
For quick wipe downs in between washes just a tiny spray bottle of denatured alcohol diluted down, and wipe down with a microfibre towel.
