can i use banner pvc stickers on my rib

i now have my ssr number and need to find some way of marking it on my boat the dealer sold painting kits but if i mess it up its has to stay looking crap. so i went to my local sign shop as my boat is pvc he showed me a sticker used for banners its pvc and bends he gave me a large bit to try
at home i stuck it to a repair parch and left it in the sink of salt water for five
hours its still on. it can be peeled of with a bit of hard work so it could be removed if needed will it damage my tubes he only what £30.00 pounds for
two a4 size names and two a4 size numbers sounds good to me what do you lot think

Remember that your tubes will contract and expand in the sun.....
I used "flexo-vynl" (excuse the spelling) from a mail order company (someone remind where!)
If you search for "boat names" you should find a useful thread...

PVC Lettering

Hi Daniel,

No problem with vinyl lettering on tubes works fine, we have used it for several years with great success just ensure it is a good quality vinyl (3 or 5 year grade).

See attached pic.

Suits You Sir!

Yes Jono thanks for that,

Something similar might suit you too sir!

But it seems to do nothing for my credibility (if you know what I mean boys).
