  • Thick / Dense white vinyl recommendations please !

    Posted by Dave Harrison on January 12, 2007 at 10:18 am

    I need a few suggestions.

    I need quite a dense white vinyl to flood coat the ( perfectly flat ) side / box of a 7.5 tonne removal truck.

    The problem is, this is an old truck, and I want to cover an existing livery
    ( hand painted )

    I’ve tried a few vinyls so far and none of them completely block whats underneath.

    I don’t really want to have to flood coat the surface twice

    BTW this vehicle is only going to be used for a couple of months ( Stop Gap while new vehicle arrives. .. or so I’m told )
    So this doesn’t have to be your normal high performance vehicle grade vinyl. . I’d be happy with a product life expectancy of 18-24 months.

    Dave, no matter what you put on, it will still show the outline of old lettering especially as it’s painted as it will be thicker in depth.

    Pyramid do a 190 micron semi-rigid self adhesive…this may work, as
    it is more like a rigid PVC. The make is Ritrama.

    Cheers,
    Jamie.
