here you’ll find clear answers to the most common questions about car wrapping, vinyl graphics, vehicle branding, and interior films

What is vinyl wrapping?

Vinyl wrapping is the process of covering a vehicle or surface with a high-quality adhesive film. It can completely change the colour or finish of your car, kitchen, or furniture without the need for paint or replacement. It also protects the original surface underneath

What are domestic interior films?

Our domestic interior films are designed to upgrade kitchens, furniture, and walls with stylish vinyl finishes. Choose from wood, marble, matte, gloss, or textured effects — a cost-effective alternative to full renovations

Can interior films be used in bathrooms?

Yes — many of our interior architectural films are moisture-resistant and suitable for bathrooms or splashback areas. They’re perfect for giving tiles, panels, and cabinets a waterproof decorative finish.

Do you provide design help?

Yes — our in-house design team can help with Logos, colour selection, branding layout, and digital previews. We can mock up your vehicle before installation so you can visualise the final result.

Can you print custom graphics or decals?

Absolutely. We design and print custom vehicle graphics, company logos, and full-colour decals in-house. Whether you want bold branding or subtle personal touches, our design team will create something unique to your style or business.

Do you offer commercial vehicle branding?

Absolutely. We specialise in vehicle branding and fleet graphics for businesses across Paisley, Glasgow, and Scotland. From simple logos to full commercial wraps, we help your brand stand out wherever you go.

How long does a car wrap last?

A professionally installed car wrap can last 5 to 7 years, depending on the quality of film and how well it’s maintained. We use trusted brands like 3M, Oracal, Avery Dennison, and Inozetek to ensure long-lasting performance and colour stability.

Do you wrap motorcycles or smaller vehicles?

Yes. We wrap motorcycles, vans, and even boats using precision-cut vinyl to fit each surface perfectly. Our experienced installers handle projects of all sizes, from single motorbikes to full commercial fleets.

Can I wash my wrapped vehicle?

Yes — but avoid harsh chemicals and automatic car washes with brushes. Use a gentle, pH-neutral shampoo and a soft microfiber cloth. We also offer wrap care products and can demonstrate the correct way to clean your vinyl wrap for long-term protection.

What colours and finishes are available for cars?

We offer hundreds of colours and finishes — including matte, gloss, satin, carbon fibre, chrome, metallic, and textured films. You can also choose speciality brands like Inozetek, Oracal, and 3M 2080 for unique, high-impact looks. Visit our Paisley studio to see real samples and finishes before choosing.

Can I wrap over damaged paint?

We recommend wrapping only on smooth, clean, and undamaged paint. If the paint is chipped or peeling, the vinyl may not adhere properly and could lift over time. Our team can inspect your vehicle first and advise if light paint correction is needed before wrapping.

Can you remove a vinyl wrap?

Yes — wraps can be safely removed without damaging your paintwork when applied and removed by professionals. Our team can also remove existing wraps or graphics before applying a new design.

How long does a car take to wrap?

Most car wraps are completed within 4–5 days, including surface preparation. Larger commercial vehicle projects may take longer, but we’ll always confirm a timeframe before starting.

How much does it cost to vinyl wrap a car?

The cost varies depending on the vehicle type, size, and material. A full car wrap typically starts from £1,400, while smaller partial wraps or decals can be more affordable. Contact us for a custom quote.

Do you offer warranties?
