We cut, weed and apply. You can collect a ready-to-fit kit, or we fit it here. Typical custom turnaround is 5–7 working days once artwork is signed off. Ready-made shop items ship in 2–3. Local fitting from Unit 2, Mintsfeet Rd S; we ship UK-wide.
Studio craft
Cut vinyl, from vans to wedding mirrors.
Campervan graphics, de-chroming, van lettering, shop windows, and wedding table plans, seating charts and welcome signs on glass and antique mirrors. Ready-made lives on Etsy and eBay. Custom starts with a photo and a brief.
Campervans
Graphics that follow the body, not a clip-art kit.
Lakes roads, salt, rain and car-park doors. Camper vinyl has to survive being used. We design around the panel gaps, the swage lines and the windows, then cut for T5, T6, T6.1, California and other campers. If you have a T4, a T25 or something converted from a panel van, send photos and we will tell you what will sit cleanly.
- Side stripes and two-tone colour splits
- Name, number and discreet identity graphics
- Partial wraps and colour-change panels
- Replacement of tired factory or aftermarket kits
We will not sell you a gecko, a compass rose or “Adventure awaits” unless you actually want it. Most of the vans we like best are quieter than that.
De-chroming
Black the brightwork. Keep the original underneath.
De-chroming, or chrome delete, is wrapping the shiny trim in automotive vinyl so the van or car reads as one colour. Window surrounds, grille bars, door handles, mirror caps, roof rails and badges. Satin, gloss or matt black, or a colour match to the body.
It is reversible. The chrome stays. That matters on a lease, a van you might sell, or trim that would cost more to replace than to cover. Paint chips; vinyl can be lifted. We wrap rather than spray because the finish has to look factory around seals and tight radii, not like a Friday-night dip.
- Window surrounds and belt-line trim
- Grilles, handles and mirror caps
- Roof rails and bumper brightwork where the surface will take film
- Prep, tuck and post-heat so edges stay down
If the chrome is pitted or peeling, we will say so. Covering failed plating is a short-term fix. Bring the vehicle in and we will tell you what is worth wrapping.
Vehicles
Lettering that can be read at 30mph.
Work vans, fleet sides, magnetic-look layouts that are actually permanent vinyl. Name, trade, phone, a mark that does not fall off at Shap. We can supply cut vinyl for you to apply, or fit it here after a wash and degrease.
- Car and van lettering
- Simple livery and one-colour identities
- Full or partial wraps by enquiry
- Laptop, tool-chest and small-run stickers
Weddings
Table plans, welcome signs, names on glass.
Cut vinyl on mirrors and glass: the piece you lean at the door, not a foam board that warps in a damp barn. Table plans, seating charts, welcome wording, unplugged-ceremony notes, bar menus, and the couple’s names. We work from your guest list and a photo of the mirror so the type actually fits the frame.
- Table plans and seating charts on antique or plain mirrors
- Welcome signs, order of the day, and bar or gift notes
- White, gold, black or a colour matched to the stationery
- Supply ready to apply, or we fit it in the studio
You keep the mirror. The vinyl can come off after the day if you want the glass back. Send the guest list as a spreadsheet or a tidy list. We will set the columns so nobody is hunting for Auntie Jean at table fourteen.
Windows & walls
Glass, walls, one clean application.
Shop windows in town, frosted privacy bands, opening hours that can be changed without a painter. Inside, cut vinyl on painted walls: logos, wayfinding, a line of type that sits flat.
We handle cutting, weeding and application, or we send a ready-to-apply pack with transfer tape and a simple fit note.

FAQ
Yes. Stripes, two-tone, identity graphics and partial colour-change. Full colour-change is by enquiry. It depends on the van, the paint and how far into the door shuts you want to go.
Covering chrome trim with vinyl so it reads black (or body colour). Window surrounds are the usual start. It is removable, so the original brightwork stays underneath.
Fitted on sound, clean surfaces, wrap film comes off later. We will not wrap over peeling chrome or failing paint and pretend it will last.
Yes. Vinyl on your mirror or glass: table plans, welcome signs, names, bar wording. Send a photo of the piece and the guest list. We can apply it here or send a weeded pack with transfer tape.
Simple lettering, wall decals and many wedding mirrors, yes, we can supply a weeded kit. Window chrome and camper panels are fussy around seals and curves. Those we prefer to fit.
Shop items: 2–3 working days. Bespoke cut work: typically 5–7 once the artwork is signed off. A de-chrome or camper fit is booked in so the vehicle can stay with us for the job.
