Can you remove lettering but leave the wrap underneath?

Often, yes. Cut lettering applied on top of a wrap can usually be warmed and peeled off without lifting the wrap, as long as both are in sound condition. The wrap under the lettering will have been shaded from the sun, so a faint outline may show; new lettering placed in the same spot usually hides it.

How long does it take to get vehicle wrap and graphics removal in Oxford?

It typically takes a few weeks from first enquiry, with much of that time falling after you approve the proof, while the work is made and scheduled. Graphics and vehicle jobs are typically shorter than fabricated or illuminated signs. If advertisement consent is needed, the council's decision comes first and adds to the overall timescale.

Is Oxford inside your coverage area for vehicle wrap and graphics removal?

It is. We work throughout the UK rather than in a single region, so Oxford and every part of Oxfordshire are included. Where a survey is needed we arrange a visit; for graphics jobs we can often quote from photos and measurements. Either way, you get a proof and a written price first.

What will the vehicle look like afterwards?

You'll get clean panels with the adhesive removed, showing the paint as it was under the film. Chips, scratches or dents that the graphics were hiding will be visible again, and some ghosting may show where the film's edges were. A valet or machine polish is usually the finishing step before a sale, lease return or re-wrap.

How long does it take to remove a van wrap?

A full wrap typically takes about a day per van, and lettering or part graphics typically take a few hours. Sun-damaged or calendered film that breaks into small pieces can take considerably longer, as can heavy adhesive residue. We'll give you a typical time once we've seen photos of the film's condition.

Vehicle wrap and graphics removal in Oxfordshire

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.

Why choose vehicle wrap and graphics removal in Oxfordshire?

Several summers in an open yard in Oxford usually leave film sun-baked, brittle and slower to remove, so allow for more careful work.
Rebranding an Oxford business means the old name and number have to come off every vehicle before the new livery goes on.
After a business in Oxford changes hands, the new owners usually want the previous company's name and phone number off the vans.

Guide prices in Oxfordshire

Here is the price picture for vehicle wrap and graphics removal in Oxfordshire: a guide of £245 to £795 per vehicle, with VAT on top. The rows below give more detail. A survey or artwork check comes first, and then we confirm the price in writing.

Vehicle wrap & graphics removal in Oxfordshire: guide prices, supplied and fitted
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 Oxfordshire: 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.
