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.
The case for car wraps and colour change in Gorseinon
- In a Gorseinon car park full of silver, grey and white cars, a satin or matt colour change is hard to miss when clients arrive.
- Valeters, driving instructors and mobile mechanics working in Gorseinon often use their own car as their shopfront, so its finish says something about the work.
- Company cars parked outside clients' offices in Gorseinon can carry a small, tasteful logo on the doors rather than a full van-style livery.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Gorseinon
Do you need the council's permission to wrap or letter a vehicle in Wales? Normally no. Graphics carried on a vehicle that is driven in the ordinary course of business sit outside advertisement control, and only a vehicle left standing largely as an advertising display is likely to interest the council. The rules that do bite concern registration and the road. A new main colour has to be recorded on the V5C with DVLA, and your insurer should hear about it. Front glazing stays clear: the 1986 Construction and Use Regulations require 75% of light through the windscreen and 70% through the front side windows. If the vehicle is leased, check the agreement allows graphics.
