Yea, white is great in the cabin. I prefer silver vinyl for the cockpit, but the cabin gets too dark with colors other than white.

I've always had great luck with these guys, and about 1/2 the price of anywhere else.

Thanks for all the help. Should i glue it to the hull sides and underside of the deck or to some kind of backer board?

That was a good one..LOL

Here is Dove Gray with blue in the cabin...and in the cockpit same thing..Dove gray with two other shades of blue, with dark blue stitching on the dove gray as an accent.

That's really sharp, Matt. I'd love to update my Formula to something like that - I have the same basic color scheme - but it's fabric (1987).

On my 32' I used the foam backed vinyl and spray contact cement directly to the hull. Just be careful and don't press to hard when you're atatching it or you will get dents and dimples. Just lightly press it down with even pressure. I did white with light gray trim.

Thanks for the input i will give it a try.
