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 Romford
- For a new business launching in Romford, a car wrapped in brand colours can be changed back if the branding moves on, with no respray involved.
- Company cars parked outside clients' offices in Romford can carry a small, tasteful logo on the doors rather than a full van-style livery.
- In a Romford car park full of silver, grey and white cars, a satin or matt colour change is hard to miss when clients arrive.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Romford
For vehicles, the paperwork is about DVLA and your insurer, not the planning department. Graphics on a van or car that is normally driven around fall outside advertisement control; only a vehicle parked mainly as an advertising hoarding is caught. A change of main colour means updating the colour on your V5C and telling your insurer. We leave the windscreen and front side windows clear, because the Construction and Use Regulations 1986 require at least 75% and 70% light through them, and we check the paint is sound factory finish before wrapping. If the vehicle is leased, confirm the lease permits graphics and how they must come off.
