Designing your own wrap? Follow this guide for optimum results:
1. Measure your drum’s diameter and depth in inches.
2. In your image editing software, set your image at a resolution of 300 DPI.
3. The height of the image should be the drum depth, minus ½” to allow for the drum rim.
4. The width of the image should be the diameter, multiplied by 3.14, plus an extra 2” to allow for adhesive overlap.
5. Once your image has been set up, you can add any graphics, text or photographs.
6. If you are using a repeating image (for example, skulls around a snare drum), take note of the number of lugs your drum has to ensure the image will lie centrally between each lug. 7. When adding images to your design, avoid stretching or enlarging graphics as this will reduce the resolution quality.
8. We accept designs in a variety of formats – preferably JPG, Flattened PNG or TIFF. Please note that we do accept PSD, AI or PDF files. Ensure your text is rasterised, or include the original font file. Images must also be embedded and not linked.
9. Our design team inspects all submitted artwork for quality when it arrives, and will contact you prior to work commencing if there are any problems or concerns. Minor changes will not incur a charge.
Once you have completed your design, you can email our sales team with the finished artwork. Please allow up to 28 days from payment to delivery.
Self-expression is the name of the game at PimpCo, and if you can’t find what you are looking for in any of our pre-designed categories, we’ll design one for you from scratch! Everyone has their own ideas on how their drums should look, and creating original designs for our creative customers is one of the most rewarding parts of our job.
Our vinyl wraps offer a durable, affordable and high-resolution alternative to custom paint applications, and you can feel confident in the knowledge that we are using the finest materials to create these stunning graphics.

Wraps are priced by the square metre. We charge £40 per hour for design,we will estimate the cost of your design and email you with the price.
Delivery times will be determined by the complexity of the design, and any changes that need to be made during the creative process.
We can take any photograph, or idea, that you may have and convert it into a unique design for your drum kit. If you are supplying us with your own images, please be aware that they need to be of sufficient resolution (300 DPI). No matter what your requirements, we are confident we can fulfil your wrapping needs.
In the future, should you require any additional wraps for different sized drums, you will only be charged for a stock wrap, not a custom wrap.
Any designs made for you by our team are yours to do with what you will, but we reserve the right to display your designs in our advertising – such as website galleries, promotional material and publications etc. If you wish your name, or your band’s name, to be kept anonymous, we will be happy to do so, and your designs will not be sold to other customers without your prior consent. Designs that are adapted from our stock designs, or featured artist sections, remain the property of the respective artist.
You can contact us via email at sales@pimpco.co.uk, or call us at our studio on 01902 790111. Or why not arrange an appointment to come see us at the studio to discuss your ideas face-to-face?
