Boat signage Northern Beaches
Do you need a sign for your yacht or motor cruiser? There are two options for boat signage. Boat names are either sign written with paint or alternatively made with vinyl stickers.
A brush is used to do traditional sign writing. The signwriter hand paints the sign or design directly to the hull of the boat.
Hand Painted Signwriting
Hand painting is done with tough and durable enamel paint. Enamel sign writing paint is easily touched up if scratched to make like new again. Alternatively, if stickers are damaged they will need to be stripped off and redone.
Stickers on Boats
The other way to do boat signs is with stickers. These stickers are cut on a robot and known name is SAV decals. Self Adhesive Vinyl stickers are easily applied by the professional sign writer. They are tough and durable. Vinyl film for signage is available in many colours.
Do It Yourself Stickers
DIY boat decals can be applied by the owner themselves with a little instruction. Installing the signs yourself (DIY) is a cheaper way to put your name on your boat. A professional sign maker will give you the advice needed for successful installation.
