by Raz Mon Sep 17, 2012 8:57 pmHello all, I was just wondering if anyone else has done a mural on the side of their van. I plan on doing it, but airbrushing is not a option really. So I have the options to use a vinyl wrap deal or a rub on transfer. However I know very little about this. I myself figured that the rub on transfer would be better because you can put a clear coat over it. If anyone knows more about this subject I will be delighted to hear your input.

Murals = expensive and you gotta trust the artist. Can be buried in clear to last.
Vinyl = cheap to expensive, layout and design can be set before application. Lasts a few years, then must be removed and leaves an outline.
I don't know about transfers.
I've got vinyl on my 108. 4 colors, Black, Green, White and Red. Doing a printed one would have easily cost double but allows a wide range of colors and fades. Think Taxis and advertising cars.
