Cost and time
A full color-change wrap in branded film: low-to-mid thousands for a sedan, a few days in the bay. A quality respray that matches factory finish: more than that, with the car gone for weeks, and it still shows on a vehicle history report.
Quality
Cheap paint has orange peel, overspray and mismatched panels. Cheap wrap has seams and lifted edges. Good versions of both look like factory. The difference is that a good wrap is achievable in days.
Reversibility and resale
A wrap comes off and the factory paint is there, preserved. A respray is permanent and, unless it was done for a reason, buyers assume it hides something.
When paint is the right answer
Failing clear coat, body damage, a restoration. Vinyl needs sound paint under it; it cannot fix paint. In that case: repair and paint, then wrap or PPF over the new paint once it has cured.
