Default Adding custom paint graphics

I have a Fountain 42" Ex and want to add some paint graphics to the bow & deck area. I love the design on the sides and stern area, but the front sides towards the bow is a little plain and needs something to spice it up. Can you add to those and blend it into the existing clear coat and paint and make it look right.

I would think you could get a spray mask directly from Fountain to do the matching graphics on the deck. Any good paint shop should be able to do the work.

What do you mean by spray mask? I have done some body and paint work on cars and have never heard this term. Can bow graphics be added to the sides and blended into the existing or would I be better leaving the existing alone and just doing something on the deck. I appreciate the help. Thanks.

Yes it can be done, but, I don't really think it needs anything on the sides. Now the deck would look much better if a few graphics were sprayed onto it. Something similar to the sides.

There are always things that can be done! The deciding factor is, what kind of a budget do you have for the project? If you would like to discuss this further, you can P.M. me or call (512) 423-7889 and I would be happy to talk to you about options.

David, thanks for the reply. This is going to be a winter (slow season) project. I don't have a budget. I am more interested in finding the right design and then just doing it. I have a couple of ideas that I want incorporated into the design. I will keep your number and give you a call when we are ready.

Thanks again, Gerrit
