    what vinyl would you recommend to use on this caravan.

    as you can see on the pic the surface is all bubbly.

    i normally use hexis e3000+ ecotac premium plus gloss series on vans.
    would this be suitable

    thanks

    If you can do it indoors & get it nice & warm, a mid range calendared will do. Other wise get a decent cast vinyl & a soft squeegee.

    Not familiar with the vinyl you mentioned buy it’s a 5-6 yr – so will probably be fine.

    thanks

    thats what i was thinking.
    what do you think on a felt squeegee.

    i should go and have a little test on it but its to far away.

    S5000 SUPTAC High Performance Series

    conformable. Suitable for all external signage and vehicle livery applications. Back printed Hexis in grey. White is now on a Blue contrast liner.

    this should do the job

    Thats all we use Scott, still not as good as cast but very good, will ‘pop’ over grooves though
