Do you work across County Londonderry or only in Magherafelt?

Across all of County Londonderry, and the rest of the UK too. Magherafelt is simply one of the places we list, and enquiries from anywhere nearby follow exactly the same steps: photos or a survey, a scaled proof, a written price, then making and fitting once you sign off the design.

Can you wrap a leased or financed car?

Usually, but read the agreement first. Agreements normally set out whether cosmetic changes are allowed and what condition the car must be in when it goes back. A colour change will have to come off before return, and the paint underneath needs to be sound for that to go smoothly, so mention the lease when you ask for a price.

Can you wrap a brand-new car straight away?

Usually, yes. Factory paint on a new car is normally the ideal base, because it's fully bonded and free of chips. The car still needs a thorough wash and decontamination before fitting so the film sticks properly. A panel that has been resprayed, even on a nearly new car, usually needs time to cure before it can be wrapped.

How long does a colour-change wrap last?

Manufacturers commonly rate quality cast colour-change films at around 5–7 years for vertical surfaces like the doors. The roof, bonnet and boot lid take more sun and weather, so they age faster. The colour and finish play a part too, as do where the car is parked and how it's washed.

Is there a typical lead time for car wraps and colour change in Magherafelt?

Yes, though it varies with the job. The lead time typically runs from the day you approve the proof, not from the first enquiry, and is typically a few weeks. Survey visits, artwork changes and any consent application sit before that point, so getting photos, sizes and logo files to us early typically shortens the overall timescale.

Is there a guide price for car wraps and colour change in Magherafelt?

Yes: £1,950–£3,750 per car + VAT is our guide range. It is not a fixed quote, because no two jobs are the same size or on the same surface. The area covered, materials, the number of letters or panels, removal of anything old and access all change the figure, which we confirm after seeing the site or artwork.

Car wraps and colour change in Magherafelt

A car wrap is a thin cast vinyl film applied over the factory paint to change the car's colour or finish, either across every panel or on selected parts such as the roof or mirrors.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Magherafelt

Does a wrapped or lettered vehicle count as an advertisement under Northern Ireland's planning rules? Not while it is used as a vehicle. Councils can treat a vehicle parked mainly to display an advert as a sign, but day-to-day livery is outside control. Registration in Northern Ireland sits with DVLA, as it does in Great Britain, so a change of main colour goes on the V5C and your insurer needs telling. The law sets minimums for the front glass: at least 75% of light through the windscreen and 70% through the front side windows, which is why our designs leave them untouched. Leased vehicles may carry conditions on graphics and their removal.
