Van sign-writing is lettering, a logo and contact details cut from coloured vinyl and applied straight onto a van's paint, usually on the sides and rear doors, without covering whole panels in printed film.
Points in favour of van sign-writing in Rosyth
- Parked on a driveway in Rosyth for a day's work, a sign-written van tells the whole street who's doing the job and how to ring you.
- Pulled up at a supplier or trade counter in or around Rosyth, a clearly lettered van can bring in subcontract work from other trades.
- Plumbers, electricians and gardeners working in Rosyth often need only a name, three services and a number, which is exactly what lettering does well.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Rosyth
Three practical rules shape vehicle graphics in Scotland. One: change the main colour and the V5C needs updating with DVLA, with your insurer told too. Two: the windscreen must pass at least 75% of light and the front side windows at least 70%, so graphics are kept off them; rear-window one-way vision is used on vans and cars with two exterior mirrors. Three: on a leased vehicle, check the lease allows graphics and how they must be removed. Advertisement consent does not usually come into it, because vehicles normally used as moving vehicles are outside advertisement control, unlike one parked as a billboard.
