Graphics
Vehicle Wrap
Vehicle wrap work needs artwork that follows doors, swage lines, handles, and fuel flaps instead of treating the body like a flat panel. It covers branded graphics for cars, bakkies, vans, and fleet vehicles used by South African shops, service teams, and delivery runs.
Fleet panels and body shapes
Vehicle Wrap covers branded graphics for cars, bakkies, vans, and fleet units. It is built for businesses that need clear brand visibility on the road with artwork prepared for real vehicle shapes.
Begin with the exact vehicle model, wheelbase, and body style before any layout is approved. A single design can shift across a hatch, a long-wheelbase panel van, or a double-cab bakkie, especially around arches and sliding doors. Johannesburg sun, Durban humidity, Cape Town wind, and gravel-road dust each affect print handling and fitting conditions.
Photos of both sides, the rear, and the bonnet help catch mouldings, dents, badges, and existing paint damage before print. Include notes on partial wrap, full wrap, or cut vinyl coverage so the installer knows where joins, bleed, and lamination matter most. That record is useful when one fleet unit needs a replacement panel later.
What goes into the wrap pack
A vehicle wrap brief should identify the vinyl grade, laminate choice, panel views, and branding positions for each unit. Clear artwork placement on doors, rear doors, tailgates, and quarter panels avoids logos landing across handles, rub strips, or number plates.
When one vehicle must match shop signs and printed material, pair the wrap with the related branding items. Check registration placement, reflectives, and copy size before release, then send the job through the contact form with the vehicle make, model and current branding file. Graphics, Shopfronts, and Mark notes help keep the whole set consistent.

- Checks for handles, trims, and hinges
Road use and regional conditions
Fleet branding often has to account for airport runs, industrial estate parking, mall service access, and long-distance road exposure. Vehicles may arrive with old adhesive, touch-up paint, stone chips, or mixed panel condition, so the wrap plan should note what can and cannot be covered cleanly. If only one unit is urgent, separate it from the larger fleet batch.
Coastal vehicles can need material choices that stand up better to salt air and regular washing. Inland vehicles collect more dust on edges and recesses, which makes surface preparation more important before vinyl is applied. Loadshedding can also affect print schedules and fitting windows, especially for larger van and truck sections.

Vehicle details needed upfront
Send the vehicle make, model, year if known, and clear photos from every side. Note whether the job is a full wrap, partial wrap, rear chevrons, or simple cut lettering, and mention any damaged panels or repainted areas.
Keep the vehicle notes with the artwork proof, colour references, and unit list for future replacements. When another van joins the fleet or one door is repaired, that file helps match panel sizing and branding position without guessing.
