Full Van Wraps in London

Full van wrapping that carries one printed design across the painted panels you agree with us, designed, printed and fitted by our own team.

What “full” means on your van

A full van wrap is one continuous printed design laid across the painted body panels we agree on together. It turns the van into a single brand surface rather than a background for a few stickers.

Full does not mean every surface. Rubber seals, door handles, textured bumper plastics, badges and some trims are often left uncovered because vinyl will not sit reliably on them. Your proof shows exactly which panels are included before anything is printed.

Designing across the whole body

  1. Side view
    Rear quarter

    Read from every side

    Each side, the rear doors and the bonnet are viewed on their own in traffic, so the layout gives each view a clear logo or message instead of stretching one image end to end.

  2. Illustrative guide: keep key text clear of door splits

    Plan around breaks

    Sliding doors, rear door splits and fuel caps cut through the artwork. We keep faces, phone numbers and logos away from these lines.

    Recesses and edges

    Deep swage lines and pressed recesses need extra material and careful positioning. Panel edges are wrapped where the design and surface allow.

    Schematic, not to scale: 1 pressed recess needs extra material, 2 panel edge wrapped where surface allows.

Proof first, then a paint check

You approve a scaled artwork proof on templates for your van model. On fitting day we look over the paintwork: chips, previous resprays, rust or flaking lacquer can affect how vinyl bonds and how it comes off later, so we flag anything we see before the wrap goes on.

If the van already carries old graphics, those need removing first. Our wrap removal and rewrapping service covers that step.

What shapes the price and the fit

  • Van size and shape

    A long-wheelbase high-roof van uses far more material and fitting time than a small panel van.

  • Design complexity

    Full-colour photography and detail that must line up across doors takes more design and installation work.

  • Preparation

    Removing old vinyl or adhesive residue adds time before installation starts.

  • Aftercare

    Hand washing and avoiding pressure-washer jets close to edges helps the vinyl stay down. We talk you through care at handover.

Will a full van wrap cover every part of the van?

No. It covers the painted panels agreed on your proof. Seals, handles, textured plastics and some trims are usually left as they are.

Can you wrap a van with damaged paint?

We check the paint before fitting. Chips, rust or poor resprays can affect adhesion and later removal, so we tell you what we find before going ahead.

Do you design the wrap as well as fit it?

Yes. Design, printing and installation are handled in-house by our own team.

Can a full wrap change the colour of my van?

A printed wrap can use any background colour in the design, so the agreed panels can look a different colour from the original paint.
