Frequently Asked Questions
We have compiled a list of questions that are commonly asked. If none of these answer your concerns, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
Q. What is a Vehicle Wrap?
A vehicle wrap is chosen to partially or completely cover the surface of a vehicle, most commonly for advertisement purposes. Vehicle Graphics can be digitally printed from artwork images, although another option is to completely change the colour of your vehicle using self coloured vinyl which is a far more cost effective and a reversible alternative to a re-spray. Either way, the vinyl can be heated, stretched and formed over every contour and recessed surface regardless of the size or shape of the vehicle.
Q. Can the Vinyl be removed from the vehicle bodywork without damaging the paintwork?
Generally yes. If the vinyl has been correctly applied to factory finished paintwork it can be removed without a problem and will have actually protected the paintwork beneath it. When stripping the vinyl, great care is needed using the correct amount of heat and pressure.
Q. Where would the work be carried out?
The vehicle(s) can either be brought to our spacious new vehicle premises near Oxford, or we can come to you. However we would need certain basic facilities to enable us to achieve the highest possible result.
Q. I know what I would like on my vehicle but need somebody to do the artwork. Are you able to help?
No problem, we have in-house designers that can work to your brief and company guidelines, to come up with artwork that you will be proud to have on your vehicle.
Q. What are your lead times?
Normally we work to 14 days from artwork approval. However, we are flexible and are used to working to extremely tight deadlines, so you tell us when you need it for and we’ll tell you if it’s possible.
Q. How much will it cost me?
This depends on a variety of factors including:
- The particular vehicle model,
- How many there are,
- The complexity of the design,
- Where it is to be fitted
- How long the wrap is needed to stay on the vehicle.

Q. Are there any surfaces that Vinyl doesn’t adhere to?
Vinyl won’t stick to textured, unpainted body trim, (e.g. some wheel arches and bumpers) rubber, (e.g. door and window seals) or rough metal which is normally in the form of rust. Generally, the surface needs to be smooth and finished as, unfortunately, it won’t cover up dents.
