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.
Where car wraps and colour change can pay off in Milngavie
- Company cars parked outside clients' offices in Milngavie can carry a small, tasteful logo on the doors rather than a full van-style livery.
- Valeters, driving instructors and mobile mechanics working in Milngavie often use their own car as their shopfront, so its finish says something about the work.
- Leased cars can be run in your brand colours around Milngavie and handed back in factory paint later, as long as the lease allows it.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Milngavie
Scotland follows the same approach to vehicle graphics as the rest of the UK. Livery on a van, car or lorry in everyday use is not treated as an advertisement needing consent; the council's interest starts only if a vehicle is parked up chiefly as a sign. What matters instead is the paperwork and the glass. DVLA should be told of any change of main colour through the V5C, and so should your insurer. Light transmission rules set a minimum of 75% for the windscreen and 70% for the front side windows, so our layouts never touch them. Lease or contract hire? Read the terms on graphics and removal first.
