Arrow Common Sense

The only reason anyone would transport
any vehicle on an open trailer - let alone
a freshly painted one - is because they are
too cheap to properly transport it in
an enclosed trailer.

The only reason anyone would wrap
plastic around a vehicle being transported
on an open trailer - let alone a freshly
painted one - is because they realize
the fresh paint can be damaged by
transporting it on an open trailer.

Wind gets under plastic wrapped
around a vehicle being towed
which moves the plastic and rubs
the paint.

Putting plastic on a vehicle being
towed on an open trailer subjects
the vehicle to a greater risk of
damaging the paint.

Enclosed car hauling trailers exist
to protect a vehicle during transport.

If wrapping a vehicle with plastic offered
the same protection - you would see open
multi vehicle car carriers loaded with
vehicles wrapped in Saran Wrap
driving own the road.
