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 Coity

Wrapping or lettering a vehicle in Wales follows the same road and registration rules as the rest of Great Britain. Graphics on a vehicle that is normally driven are outside advertisement control, although a vehicle left parked mainly as an advert is treated differently. Change the main colour and the V5C needs updating with DVLA, and your insurer needs to know. Graphics stay off the windscreen and front side windows, which must transmit at least 75% and 70% of light respectively. Leased? Check the agreement permits graphics and how they must come off. We plan every layout around these points from the first proof.

Car wraps and colour change in Coity: questions

What makes car wraps and colour change more or less expensive?

Size and quantity come first, then the material or film, any lighting, the height of the work and the equipment needed to reach it, and the state of the surface or old sign being replaced. Against that, the guide for a job in Coity is £1,950–£3,750 per car + VAT, confirmed after a survey or artwork check.

Will a wrap protect the paint underneath?

It helps. While the film is on, it shields the paint from sun fade, light scuffs and bird droppings, which is one reason some owners of newer cars choose a wrap over a respray. It isn't armour, though: a sharp stone or a car-park knock can still mark the film and occasionally the paint below.

Will someone visit my premises in Coity before quoting?

If the job needs it, yes. For signs fixed to a building, anything illuminated or work at height, we arrange a survey to measure, check the wall and plan access. For window graphics, lettering and many vehicle jobs, clear photos with measurements are often enough, and we only visit if something needs a closer look.

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.

When could work on car wraps and colour change go ahead in Coity?

Fitting is typically scheduled once three things are in place: you have approved the proof, the materials are made or delivered, and any consent the job needs has been granted. For many jobs that is typically a few weeks from approval; illuminated or larger fabricated signs typically take longer, and consent decisions run to their own timetable.

Do you have to tell DVLA about a colour-change wrap?

Yes, if the wrap changes the car's main colour. Update the colour on the V5C log book with DVLA, and tell your insurer before you drive the car in its new colour. A part wrap such as a black roof or mirrors doesn't change the main colour, so the V5C stays as it is, though it's still worth mentioning to your insurer.
