    i am not sure of a distributor in your country, but i would suggest using any good CAST make of vinyl.

    best of luck with your new business.

    any vinyl that you would use on a van would do, cast or a good quality calendered, helis dont need anything special, as most dont go high or fast enough to need any special material. Use a vinyl that suits the surface shape, if lots of rivets and panel joints then cast is best, flat surfaces, good quality any make, 5-7 year will be OK,

    I agree. I’ve done vinyls for helicopters before and it was a cast vinyl I used.
