Depending on the vehicle and the extent of the work required, a colour change wrap can take anywhere between 3–10 days to complete. This can vary depending on whether it's a partial wrap, full wrap, or includes additional areas such as door shuts and returns.
Additional services such as window tinting, caliper painting and ceramic coating may extend this timeframe. An estimated completion time will be provided alongside your quotation, so you'll know what to expect before booking.
-
The majority of colours are priced similarly. However, costs can vary significantly depending on the finish you choose, with specialist options such as high-gloss, super-gloss, colour-shifting and textured films typically costing more than standard finishes.
-
Following completion, you'll receive an aftercare hanger with guidance on how to properly maintain your new wrap or PPF.
We recommend regular hand washing using a pH-neutral shampoo, avoiding harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaning products and automatic car washes. Any bird droppings, tree sap or other contaminants should be removed as soon as possible to prevent staining or damage. With the correct care and maintenance, your wrap or PPF will continue to look its best for years to come.
-
The lifespan of a wrap depends on the material chosen and how well it is maintained. For example, 3M wrapping films are designed to last between 5–7 years with the correct care, helping to maintain their colour and finish over time.
PPF (Paint Protection Film) can last up to 10 years, depending on the environmental conditions and ongoing maintenance.
-
All of our services come with a 12-month installation warranty for added peace of mind.
Manufacturer warranties for vinyl wraps vary depending on the brand and material chosen, while our PPF (Paint Protection Film) comes with a 10-year manufacturer warranty.
-
Wrap removal typically takes around 3 days, although this can vary depending on the material used, how long the wrap has been on the vehicle and the amount of adhesive residue left behind during removal.
-
Vinyl wraps are designed to be applied to smooth, painted surfaces that are in good condition. Textured or unpainted black plastic surfaces are generally unsuitable for wrapping, as the vinyl may not adhere correctly.
It's also important that the paintwork is in good condition before installation, as any existing imperfections, such as scratches, stone chips or peeling paint, may remain visible through the wrap and affect the final finish.
-
Yes, any modifications made to your vehicle, including vinyl wraps, painted calipers and window tints, should be declared to your insurance provider.
For full colour change wraps, particularly those that include extensive coverage such as door shuts and returns, you should also notify the DVLA to ensure your vehicle's registered colour is up to date.
