So here I am ready to launch this week and I had a sudden desire to re-install the boot stripe which the po removed. Any recommendations on a vendor in the lower Fairfield county area of CT that does this? My Marina said they could do it but naturally they're swamped this time of year and not sure when they would be able to. Has anyone done this themselves? If so what's the difficulty rating?
 
DIY is not hard, there are YouTube videos out there of the process. Or, look for an auto detailer or body shop.
 
Dean my detailer did mine ask around the yard these guys do it all. There's no way I would get it that straight.
 
Did my own...not that bad to do but, it's not perfect and I wasn't happy with my very slight squiggle but, it's tape and will be redone in a few more years anyways.
If your applying a straight line should be easy but, if your swooping up the bow at all it's more challenge.

Funny thing, once its in the water...you'll never see it again.
 
lighthouse vinyl did mine for the previous owner.. they are in westbrook..

when the PO says use someone.. use him..
 
Reached out to Bowman Signs. I'd screw it up for sure.
