What is doming and why do I want it?

Read all about how doming works here. Domed lettering is simply vinyl lettering with doming epoxy resin on top of it. It creates a really nice looking domed effect that is common on boats. Where boat manufacturers buy domed lettering in bulk we specialize in custom names, numbers, and lettering.

How does my lettering arrive?

Your lettering is cut, weeded, and coated in a transfer tape ready to install as a completed adhesive backed pre spaced strip. Installation instructions and videos are available in our instructions section. We have many optional installation accessories located in our accessories section.

About our vinyl

You should see 5 - 7 years of life out of your lettering. More is very common, but it depends on if your boat is stored outside or not. One important distinction is that there are multiple methods to dome lettering. We use a two part epoxy mix that must air dry. This is different from a UV cured process. Our process last MUCH longer and does not yellow in the sun like UV cured epoxy.
