Vehicle wrap removal is the process of warming old vinyl graphics until the film releases, peeling it away at a low angle, then cleaning off leftover adhesive so the paint is ready to sell, return or re-wrap.
Reasons to choose vehicle wrap and graphics removal in Bonnyrigg
- Several summers in an open yard in Bonnyrigg usually leave film sun-baked, brittle and slower to remove, so allow for more careful work.
- Faded, cracked graphics on a van parked at Bonnyrigg jobs send the wrong message, and taking them off is the first step to a fresh look.
- After a business in Bonnyrigg changes hands, the new owners usually want the previous company's name and phone number off the vans.
What vehicle wrap and graphics removal costs in Bonnyrigg
The table shows guide prices for vehicle wrap and graphics removal, starting from £245 and reaching about £795 per vehicle. All figures exclude VAT. Your own price is confirmed after we have seen the site or the artwork, so treat these as a starting point.
| Item | Guide, ex VAT | Inc. VAT (20%) |
|---|---|---|
| Lettering or part graphics removal | £245 – £450 | £294 – £540 |
| Full wrap removal | £450 – £795 | £540 – £954 |
The biggest factors are the age of the vinyl, whether it's cast or calendered film, and how much sun damage it has taken: brittle, cracked film takes far longer than film that peels in sheets. Vehicle size, the amount of adhesive left behind and any reflective film also count. Guide prices exclude VAT, and the final figure is confirmed from photos of the film's condition.

Vehicle wrap and graphics removal in Bonnyrigg: permission and rules
Removing graphics isn't usually a council matter. The point to watch is the V5C: if the wrap being removed changed the vehicle's main colour and DVLA was told at the time, update the colour back with DVLA and tell your insurer. Removing lettering or a part wrap over the original colour doesn't change the record. On a leased vehicle, check the return conditions for how graphics must be removed and how marks are charged. If the vehicle works on the highway, check whether your contract still needs Chapter 8 markings before they come off. These points are the same whether the vehicle is kept in England, Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland.
