Custom Boat Wraps in Birmingham, AL – Stand Out and Stay Protected

Owning a boat allows for aquatic getaways and excursions, whether you’re out fishing, boating, or enjoying water sports. However, being out on the water often can cause your boat’s hull and deck to fade, crack, and wear down.

Protect your boat from UV and water damage and improve its appearance with our custom boat wraps from Sign Source. From advertising your business to adding a personal touch to your jet ski, our vinyl wraps will help your watercraft stand out and preserve its value.

Why Choose Boat Wraps?

Durability and Protection

Vinyl wraps protect your boat from various types of damage on and off the water. The first threat is UV exposure, which can cause your paint to fade, crack, and show signs of wear. Another threat is saltwater, which increases the risk of rust and corrosion on your watercraft’s metallic parts. Boats can also get scratches and dents during docking or while being loaded or unloaded from a trailer.

Our high-performance coats create a durable barrier between your boat’s surface and harsh marine conditions that help to minimize wear and tear and extend the life of your watercraft. Additionally, the vinyl wrap protects your paint with no additional clear coating required.

Customizable Boat Wrap Designs

Vinyl wraps offer more customization options than traditional paint to make your boat unique from any other. For starters, your color choices are anything but limited, whether you prefer one solid color or a blend of different shades.

Additionally, you can design custom boat graphics with your desired images, artwork, patterns, finishes, and special effects. You can use your boat as an advertisement on the water by printing your company logo, colors, slogans, and contact information. 

Cost Savings

While costs can vary with the size of the watercraft, paint quality, and complexity of the design, installing a vinyl wrap is generally more inexpensive than painting your boat. If you have several watercraft, you’ll save more on fleet graphics than airbrushing every vessel.

Wraps are also easier to maintain. Unlike marine-grade paint, which requires regular waxing and special cleaning products, you only need soap and water to keep your wrap shiny and clean.

Finally, wraps protect your original paint to preserve the watercraft’s value. Additionally, if you want a new custom design, you can always remove your existing wrap without damaging the paint.

Eco-Friendly Option

Unlike marine paints that can harm the environment with harsh chemicals, vinyl wraps can be applied without any solvents.

Vinyl wraps come in pre-determined sizes, leaving minimal waste during application. While traditional paint jobs require sanding or chemical stripping to remove old paint, you can remove or update wraps without abrasive methods.

Our Boat Wrap Services

Types of Boat Wraps

  • Full boat wraps provide full exterior coverage, ensuring maximum protection and a uniform look for your boat. Although full wraps may cost more than partial wraps, they offer long-term savings by reducing the need for repainting.
  • Partial wraps only cover specific parts of the boat, such as the sides, bow, or transom. They’re ideal for displaying logos and other smaller graphics while preserving the boat’s original appearance.
  • Graphic and branding wraps help brands with their marketing efforts, whether you want to promote your products and services or advertise upcoming events. Graphic and branding wraps take different forms, including full wraps as well as smaller displays featuring your brand name, logo, and tagline.

Material Quality

We offer the following types of boat wraps, each with its unique properties:

  • Avery Dennison: This brand stands out for its wide selection of colors, including unique pastel tones such as sea-breeze blue and light pistachio. Similarly, Avery Dennison comes with a special adhesive to easily install and remove the wrap.

The Process

Consultation

You’ll meet with our team to discuss your needs and vision for the wrap, whether you want to promote a brand, protect the original paint, achieve a uniform look, or personalize your watercraft with custom artwork.

Our experts will then measure the boat’s size and shape and provide a price quote and timeline for installation.

Design

You can get as creative as you want with your custom boat graphics, whether you’re designing something new or replicating existing branding. Similarly, you’ll receive a mockup of the final design and can request changes before the wrap is installed.

Installation

We use squeegees, heat guns, and other specialized tools to ensure a tight, smooth fit that doesn’t peel or form air bubbles. Our precision and expertise also allow us to work around edges and contours while maintaining the wrap’s adhesion and design.

Maintenance Advice

The following cleaning, storage, and care tips will extend the life of your wrap and keep it looking good.

  • Wash your boat regularly to remove salt and dirt buildup. However, avoid harsh soap or rough brushes and sponges that can damage the wrap.
  • Dry the boat with a microfiber cloth to avoid water spots.
  • Cover your boat or store it indoors to protect it from UV rays, bird droppings, dust, and debris.
  • Inspect the wrap for lifting edges and small tears, and get a professional touch-up before the damage gets worse.
