I just added this vinyl lettering decal to our T@B..

I just happened to come across this quote in an Army retiree newsletter and liked it, though it wasn't until later that I found where the quote comes from.
In any case, I got this made at

and found it very quick & easy to order & to install.  I went with the premium vinyl 2-inch letters, and they have tons of fonts to choose from in various categories..

Anyone else used this service?  If so, I'm wondering how well it holds up, or how long it might last.  Was very easy to install - I used the method in the instructions for cutting into groups of about 3 letters each after taping in place before removing the backing, which makes it easy to handle.

    Similar idea & similar method.  Nicely done.

    The life span really depends on the quality of vinyl used. I regularly use 303 UV protectant to hopefully extend life span. Sometimes the vinyl will shrink over time and the edges start to lift. If that happens I use a razor knife to cut the loose material away. A little mineral spirits will remove the adhesive which will collect dirt.

    Had the wrap on our 400 for 2-years and it looks as good as the day it was installed.  when in storage we keep our t@b covered.

    We purchased all of our decals from Vinyl Disorder out of California.  They were installed in July, 2017. Our t@b is in the weather, uncovered 6 to 7 months of the year and we have over 44/45,000 miles on the trailer and on the decals.


    We have other decals on the front and both sides. We have no deterioration or even corners peeling, and would do it all again.
