A specialist service

Your vehicle is
your biggest advert.

A professionally branded vehicle works as a mobile advert everywhere it travels and parks, potentially putting your business in front of thousands of people each day. You pay once for the signwriting, with no ongoing monthly advertising fee. Customers may not want to interrupt while you’re busy on a job, but clear vehicle graphics allow them to note your name and contact details for later.

Choosing the right format

How much coverage do I need on my vehicle?

This comparison is specifically for vehicle branding—not the whole SJ Signs service. The right answer depends on the vehicle, your brand, the working environment and how bold you want the result to be.

Frequently asked questions

Useful things
to know.

If your question isn’t covered here, email or WhatsApp us with a photo and a short description.

Can you help with the design as well as production?

Yes. We can develop the visual layout around your existing branding and the space or vehicle involved. If you already have finished artwork, we can check it for scale and production suitability before anything is made.

What artwork files are best?

Vector artwork is ideal—usually PDF, SVG, EPS or AI—with fonts converted to outlines. High-resolution PNG, TIFF or JPEG files may also work for printed graphics. Send what you have and we’ll advise if anything else is needed.

What is the difference between vehicle graphics and a wrap?

Vehicle graphics normally use individual logos, lettering and printed shapes on selected areas. A partial, modular or full wrap covers larger sections and becomes more integrated with the shape of the vehicle. The comparison above gives a quick guide.

Can you keep several vehicles looking consistent?

Yes. A repeatable layout can be adapted across different makes and models so logos, colours and key information remain consistent throughout a fleet.

How long will my sign or wrap take?

Timing depends on the design, materials, size, installation requirements and current workload. Tell us your preferred date when enquiring and we’ll give you a realistic timescale with the quotation.

Do you install the finished signage?

Yes, SJ Signs provides design, manufacture and installation. Site access, fixing method, height, power requirements and any preparation can be discussed during quoting.

How should wrapped vehicles be looked after?

Regular gentle hand washing is usually best. Avoid aggressive chemicals, abrasive tools and holding a pressure washer close to vinyl edges. We can provide care guidance appropriate to the film used on your project.

Can I get a quote by email?

Yes—email is the preferred route. Include the details listed in the quote checklist above and attach relevant photos or artwork. You can also call or use WhatsApp if it is easier.
