any place that does vehicle wraps should be able to do boat wraps just make sure it's laminated and expect at least $100 per linear foot 19 foot boat = $1900 if not more

from the literature I've read, on a car you can expect up to 3 years. My guess is a boat would last longer if it's kept under cover and out of the elements.

wow, didn't think it would be that good....
I guess if it develops a tear, it could probably patched or repaired.

does it actually adhere to the vehicle..... like theprotective coating applied to factory plexiglass panels or is it just surface tension from the shrinking process?

it's my understanding the adhesive is what holds it to the substrate, the heat is to help mold the vinyl to complex curves and help the vinyl form a memory.

I could be wrong though

I was all primed to buy a printer, but I've already got one full time job and the cost of the equipment and the facility to do the work is something I won't do until I can do it full time.

Unless someone here wants to front me $25 grand and a 40 x 60 building to work from......

I have been looking at wraps for my new one also. Least expensive complete wrap, even from MC, was $4k. Pretty pricey.
