[C320-list] stripe relplacement?

[Paul Rickman]

    I've not replaced my stripes, but when I've put vinyl anything on my boat, I've drawn a line, taped the
new vinyl on the hull, then removed the backing  to put it into place, a little at a time.

Get a squeegee tool to rub out the bubbles -- apply wax and you are done. Some people spray water
on to the hull before.

Subject: [C320-list] stripe relplacement?

The two stripes on our hull (1994 model) have begun to shrink and crack and 
I'd like to replace them.  I recall some discussion about this a while back 
but I can't seem to find the references in the archives.  Has anyone 
replaced these stripes, and if so, where did you find replacements?  What's 
the best way to remove the old stripes?  Are there tricks to replacing the 
stripes and keeping them straight as they are applied?
Thanks for any advice,
Martin Raphael
