We use a variety of vinyl types depending on the colors you order. Standard colors are produced with a 3M 6 year vinyl/laminate combination (which will often last longer). Laminate is included for free on all of our standard colors. Specialty colors can vary greatly depending on the specific color. In general specialty films carry at least a 5 year outdoor life as rated by the manufacturer. Need better adhesive? Our high tack adhesive option is ideal for low energy plastics like kayaks and waverunners.

Installation was super easy. I especially appreciate the fact I could get a Les Paul guitar to incorporate into my Port of Call location, bowing to the fact my hometown is Les Paul's birthplace.

Perfect. I was just about given a 1980 AMF Sunbird. The sails are in great shape. The boat is in great shape. It's a 17 ft day sailor. It needs a lot of work on the rigging but I got that. Since I'm in Louisiana, and crawfish are a big deal, the name little fish comes naturally.

As you can see, I got the name and hailing port decal installed today. Thank you the process was very easy to do and looks so professional. This is a 1993 Starcraft Islander 191V that I have just gotten seaworthy this was one of the final things I wanted to do, place her name on her. The name "Bubbles Up" is from a Jimmy Buffett song of the same name on his last a final album.
