My new winter daily is quite a tidy old thing, aside from a roof covered in lacquer peel! As the car is in 'you couldn't lose it in a car park, even if you tried', orange, I'd like to wrap the roof in something suitably vibrant: a giant Smarties decal.  Google has failed me so far, or I have failed it, can anyone help with a recommendation as to where I might be able to find such a pattern? All I've found so far is this; wallstickers.next.co.uk/Food-and-Drink-Wallpaper/wall-photo/FD166723109-22-2267_Smarties.aspxThanks.  |

You used to be able to get it from Wilko, not sure if they still do it.

^ yeah, Wilkos did do it. Proper FABLON stuff, but it's been discontinued now. I'm sure I've got a couple of sheets of it somewhere here but christ knows where...  |

Might be worth doing a search for M&M's

The Range sell The vinyl used for kitchen table etc. but not sure how it would fare out in the sun.
You local graphics place should be able to supply you a sheet bit enough to do the roof.

B&Q have Fablon in Smarties pattern (at least the one in Coventry does). I covered a chest of drawers in it for my daughter's room. It's only about 50cm wide though.

A friend of mine done the roof of his car with the Wilko stuff around 8-9 years back. Bit of a rush job, so could have came out better to be honest, but from memory it was quite durable and lasted well;  |

Depending on the shape of the roof, you might need to use a digitally printed cast/wrap vinyl. This would give you a print width of around 1500mm so you shouldn't have any joins.
