Default Boat Wraps

My 94 2000SC has really faded Gel coat http://theboat92.shutterfly.com/ and was thinking about this http://www.ultimateboatwraps.com/. Has anyone done this? might be cheeper/easier than trying to Buff out the gel coat!

no man......look at this...... http://x-kote.com/ ......then it's brand new....find a dealer just near you......keep your boat always original because of the value that it keeps that way....

if you have a silver bmw and willing to sell it, they will pay you the money you ask (well almost)........but after you painted it pink it is'nt worth a dollar anymore......but i must say wrap looks very very nice.....

greatz, ed

I checked some prices on wraps a while back from other places. They were pricey. The wetsand and buff would be better unless you just want something new. I ended up with a wet sand, buff and paint on mine but it wasn't quite as faded as yours. That gelcoat is pretty thick stuff though so it may come back. Not to metion those wraps won't hold up very well if it gets rubbed or bumped into. Let us know what you find out and of course, pics are a must.

Hi,
Looks good just not sure how durable it is....
I was looking last winter to do electroluminescent sign/wrap for the boat name.

Hi,

Eventually local fast sign dealer was able to find someone from Ottawa that will do electroluminescent boat sign for $500. Only problem with that was that sign would be ¼” thick, and I decided to wait season or two for that.
