From Plain to Pullman: Giving the Royal Scotsman a Fresh New Look
We recently headed back to Arlington Fleet Services to apply the exterior graphics to two Royal Scotsman coaches, helping transform them from freshly painted shells into the iconic luxury carriages they're destined to become. Arlington carries out specialist refurbishment work on heritage and luxury rolling stock, making it the perfect setting for a project like this. The first photos show the coaches before we got started – sanded back, graphics removed, looking a little sor

Bold, Bright and Impossible to Miss – Another Eye-Catching Wrap for Bedhampton Tyres
Some vehicles are designed to blend in. This definitely isn't one of them! We recently completed another full vehicle wrap for Bedhampton Tyres, continuing their fleet of bold, colourful vans that are guaranteed to turn heads wherever they go. One of the things we love about this fleet is that no two vehicles are the same. Each van features its own standout colour, creating a vibrant collection that's instantly recognisable while still maintaining a consistent brand identity.

Small Wrap, Big Impact – THT Home Improvements Gets an Upgrade!
Another partial vehicle wrap completed for THT Home Improvements, proving that sometimes less really is more. Using a combination of bold branding, eye-catching graphics and carefully placed design elements, we transformed the car into a professional, mobile advertisement that's sure to grab attention on the road. The partial wrap works with the vehicle's original paint colour to create a clean, modern finish while keeping the branding front and centre. It's a great example o

Every Sign Has a Story… This One Had Two!
Sometimes, the most interesting part of a job isn't what you can see; it's what you find along the way. Earlier this month, we were delighted to renovate the historic sign at St James by the Park Community Hall, which is currently undergoing an exciting refurbishment. As we carefully removed the sign ready for its makeover, we uncovered an unexpected surprise hiding beneath it… an old advert for a pirate radio station! It was a fantastic little glimpse into the building's pas

Lighting Up the High Streets – Two New Lightbox Installations
Some signs do a great job during the day...The best ones keep working long after the sun goes down! We recently completed the installation of two brand-new illuminated lightboxes for Sanjha and Browns Hair Lounge, helping both businesses shine a little brighter and stand out to passing customers. For Sanjha's food truck, the new lightbox adds the perfect finishing touch, making it even more eye-catching whether it's travelling around serving lunchtime favourites or evening tr

Let There Be Light! Our Van Bay Gets a Bright New Upgrade
It's not every day we get to show off improvements to our own workspace, but this one was too good not to share! Our van bay has had a major upgrade with brand-new honeycomb-style LED lighting, and we're absolutely loving the difference. Not only does it look incredibly smart (we're trying not to spend too much time just admiring the ceiling!), but it also gives us bright, even illumination that's perfect for spotting every little detail during installations. But the upgrade

Think We Only Wrap Vehicles? Think Again!
When people think of wrapping, they usually picture cars, vans and lorries. But every now and then, a project comes along that reminds us just how versatile wrapping vinyl can be! We’ve completed an architectural wrap inside a Midland Pullman coach, giving the bathroom interior a fresh new look without the need for a full refurbishment. It's a great example of how wrapping can breathe new life into existing surfaces quickly, cleanly and cost-effectively. Now, we won't pretend

From White to Wow: The Spectrum Signs Van Gets a Full Wrap Makeover
There’s nothing quite like a fresh vehicle wrap to give a van a completely new personality, and that’s exactly what we’ve done with the Spectrum Signs van. What started life as a plain white van has now had the full wrap treatment, transforming it into a sleek black head-turner complete with fresh new branding! The transformation has completely changed the look and feel of the vehicle, giving it a much bolder and more professional appearance on the road. It’s clean, modern, a

Fresh Sign, Fresh Start at Eastleigh Council Building
There’s nothing like a newly renovated building to give a place a bit of a reset, and this one now has the finishing touch. We’ve recently completed the installation of a new exterior building sign at the renovated community centre of Eastleigh Borough Council, helping mark the building’s return to full council use in a clear and welcoming way. After the refurbishment work, the site already had that “freshly updated” feel, but the new signage ties everything together properly

From White to Black: Flow Services Van Gets a Sleek New Look
This one’s had a proper glow-up. We’ve just completed a full transformation for Flow Services - taking their van from plain white to a striking metallic black finish, followed by sleek, precision-applied branding graphics. The result? A much sharper, more premium-looking vehicle that feels like it means business the moment it pulls up. The full colour change wrap gives the van a completely fresh base, and the added graphics bring everything together with a clean, modern finis

Van Graphics for THT Plumbing & Home Improvements
There’s something satisfying about seeing a well-loved work van get a fresh new identity. This week we had the pleasure of giving another THT Plumbing & Home Improvements van exactly that. Gone is the plain, “just-getting-the-job-done” look. In its place? A bold, professional set of van graphics that turns heads while cruising through town (and probably makes a few competitors glance twice at the traffic lights). The design was created to reflect exactly what THT Plumbing & H
