Marine vinyl has special additives that protect it from harsh elements like UV rays, mold and mildew, cold temperatures, and saltwater. Regular vinyl is not designed to withstand these conditions and will break down much faster.

Cleaning marine vinyl requires special care to avoid damaging the material. It's recommended to use a mild soap solution and a soft cloth. For tougher cleaning or stain removal, there are special marine vinyl cleaners available. You can find more detailed cleaning instructions in our blog post how to clean your marine vinyl?

There are a few ways to remove creases from folded marine vinyl. You can lay it flat in the sun, use a heat gun on a low setting, or place a heating pad or heated blanket on a low setting on top of the vinyl. Smaller pieces can be carefully placed in a dryer on a low heat setting.

The 500-hour UV rating is an industry standard test length. Many marine vinyl products can last much longer than this, especially with proper care. However, some colors, like red, orange, and neon pink, may fade faster. To extend the life of your marine vinyl, it's recommended to cover it when not in use.

The vinyl itself is waterproof due to the PVC top layer. However, if the vinyl is sewn together, water can seep through the seams.

Marine vinyl typically has a white knit polyester backing that is strong, durable, and fray-resistant. The texture of the vinyl can vary depending on the type. Most marine vinyl has a mild leather texture, but some options have a carbon fiber, armadillo shell, or modern linear design.

When you order "By The Yard" the majority of the time it is shipped in one continuous piece. Occasionally rolls will have splits in the vinyl where the vinyl is taped together. This is an area where the backing had to be switched while being made. We do our best to avoid sending this out, but full rolls and larger orders may include splits. Please let us know in the order comments or call us to let us know that you cannot have a split in your roll to complete your project. We will do our best to accommodate these requests but cannot make any promises.
If you order less than 30 yards the order should come in one continuous piece. We do our best to send rolls in one piece, but occasionally our team may accidently send out a split roll. If you order a 30 yard roll it may contain up to 1 factory split. If you need the material not to have a split please let us know before the order is filled.

Many people wish there was a magic formula to know exactly how much they need. Unfortunately there is not a magic formula. The best way is to measure the existing material. Be sure to measure the surface as well as the sides and be sure to give yourself a little extra to wrap it around the bottom. Marine vinyl typically comes in a standard width of 54 inches.

Simply select the color you need. This item is sold by the running linear yard. A linear yard of marine vinyl is 36" long, but the width will always be 54" wide. For example 2 linear yards would be 72" long by 54" wide. In the space labeled "Quantity" enter the number of yards desired. Lengths are sold as continuous yards in one piece. If you feel like your measurements are accurate you do not need to order extra, but most people like to add a little extra just in case.

Most orders are processed in 1-2 business days and then it’s just the parcel transit time to your destination. Parcel package tracking will be sent at the time of order processing in an email separate from your order confirmation email. Price is per linear yard, 30 yards is the maximum roll length. *Full 30 yd rolls may contain 1 split.

Our vinyl material is simply a higher quality. Besides our vinyl feeling softer and more authentic our product is made of DOTP plasticizers which is the safest and best quality plasticizer available. We also mix additional additives directly into the vinyl to improve its UV protection and Prevent Mold/Mildew Growth. We also add in an extra ingredient to ensure our vinyl can hold up in extremely cold temperatures. The backing is also made with a tighter woven polyester weave making it stronger and more durable.
