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.
Where vehicle wrap and graphics removal can pay off in Eltham
- Several summers in an open yard in Eltham usually leave film sun-baked, brittle and slower to remove, so allow for more careful work.
- Buyers of used vans in Eltham and across Greater London often prefer a plain vehicle, so stripping old lettering can make a van easier to sell.
- When an Eltham firm takes on a contract with different branding rules, old graphics can come off and new livery go on as one planned job.

Vehicle wrap and graphics removal in Eltham: 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.
