Whether
you are looking to advertise your business,
or simply decorate your car, car graphics
can be a great way to spruce up the
appearance of your vehicle. Here are
some answers to some of the more commonly
asked questions about car graphics.
Are car graphics
just stickers? While car graphics
are a bit like stickers, in that they
are backed by an adhesive and have to
be peeled from a piece of greaseproof
material, the similarity ends there.
Car graphics are made from vinyl, which
unlike paper, does not fade, bubble,
or peel off in the rain.
Can I make my
own car graphics? While you can
cut out your own shapes from vinyl sheets,
you will generally get a better result
if you buy your graphics from a car
detailing shop or other specialty store,
as these will have been cut with a special
machine that ensures that there are
no ragged edges or flaws.
Will having car
graphics affect my insurance premium?
As a rule, car graphics will not have
any direct bearing on your insurance
premium. However, they do make your
vehicle more distinctive, and therefore
less attractive to thieves, thereby
reducing the chance that you will have
to claim on your insurance, and lose
your no claims discount. If you are
looking to bring down your car insurance
premium, the best way to go about it
is to shop around online. Many firms
will give you a better deal if you buy
online. For example, Kwik
Fit Insurance offer customers
a 20% discount for purchasing car
insurance
from their website rather than over
the phone.
Can I remove my
car graphics? You can, but it
is quite a difficult process. Permanent
car graphics are backed by a strong
adhesive, which makes them difficult
to remove without damaging the graphic.
This is why it is important to make
sure that your graphics are precisely
placed before you apply them, as they
cannot be moved once they are on.
Can I apply them
to windows? Car graphics can
be applied to windows, but it is important
to ensure that visibility is not adversely
affected. As a rule, it is best to restrict
them to the side windows and the very
tops of the front and back windows,
making sure that you can still see your
wing mirrors from the driving position.
