You would NEVER paint over vinyl.

i figured the graphics were done with a faster drying paint than imron...

from what i was told imron takes forever to set so using an imron clear makes sense...

Call the Formula factory (800 736 7685) and ask for the TAG group (Technical Assistance). If you have any really detailed questions, you could ask for Sue, who runs the paint shop (and has for years). They are very helpful. And, YES - all the graphics are in Imron and have been for as long as anyone can remember. You can mix modern paints with faster-drying activators and thinners so the time lost is not that great.

As an alternative, Formula might provide you with the graphics files for your boat so you can get a local vinyl shop to cut some add-ons or cover-ups for you. Do you have a picture of your boat?

not the best pic

I really am not a fan of the graphics. the clear is coming off in spots and the vinal on the deck is about done. That and I have to redo the sunpad and the headliner! So im trying to decide what to do about the color scheme of the boat.

needless to say its going to be a busy winter!
