Default NEW Boat Wraps

Just had my Active Thunder wrapped by Edgewraps.com in Michigan. Photos are not that great but I am super happy with the work and colour. Not as shiny and deep as new paint but close and 1/4 of the price. Still have to paint the foot rails and install the hardware and such. If you need a wrap these guys are good!

They did the design with a bit of my input. I just told them what I was looking for.

I will be curious how the wrap on the deck works out. I have been told , in the past, it isn't a good idea to wrap the deck because of the direct exposure to sunlight. The extreme heat will cause premature color fade and also was told the edges (around hardware, hatches, rails, etc) will have a tendency to curl or lift early... I was told this a few years ago, I am sure materials have improved so maybe that isn't an issue now......

I would agree but apparently the new wrap and laminate is fairly good. Come with 5 year fade, crack, peel warranty. Hopefully it works out.

Very cool I want to wrap my windshield on my Baja sport 280 on Long Island in NY but everyone I called here says they cant do it or doesn't show .I am being told that it has to many curves and changes directions to many times ??? If someone can wrap a whole boat (big boat from top to bottom) I say it can be done .
The boat in the pictures looks great .
I wish there was a quality craftsman here that could do the job I want to do....

Very cool and sure to turn heads where ever you cruise....

Thanks! Ya, I was very skeptical as well as the boat also has lots of curves and angles. I guess the heat gun can make the wrap contour to anything i guess.
