Our wraps are warranted against defective application not against damage caused by solvents/petrol run off or damage due to impact. The vinyl is warranted for up to 3 years. This means any advanved colour fading or unusuall breakdown of the surface is covered.

Absolutely! The beauty of a wrap is it''s completely customised to suit your needs/wants. Just note any images for prints will need to be of a high quality ( probably not a photo taken on your iphone 4 )
05 How long does it take to wrap a boat?
Depending on size and condition, normally we request to have your boat for 2 days. If you need it urgently just let us know.
06 Do I need to Sand or scuff the boat sides for the wrap to stick?
No. The wrap does not need a sanded or scuffed surface to adhere to. However especially with aluminium boats any sharp edges from pre-existing chips or scrapes will need to smoothed as they can pierce the wrap.
07 Can I wrap over bare aluminium?
Yes! A wrap performs excellent over bare aluminium.
08 Can I wrap over damaged paint?
No, you should not wrap over damaged paint! Couple of reasons, first is that the wrap will conform to whatever texture is below it, scratches, cracks etc will still be seen. When it comes to for a removal the wrap will in most cases take the failing paint with it. You need a clean and sound substrate for the vinyl to adhere to.
09 Will a wrap damage the surface of my boat and can it be easily removed in the future?
No. Wrapping your boat will not damage the surface with the exception of wrapping over damaged paint as stated in the previous question. The wrap will actually protect your boat from the elements and because we only use Avery Dennison’s highest quality films, they are easy to remove in the future.

No, do not wrap over antifoul. There is a high risk of wrap failure by doing so and will lead to water penetrating up under the film and destroying the wrap.
