Lettering a Riveted Hull?

[ShadowWalker]

I was going to order some vinyl for a boat name on my project boat, then while I was sitting on my deck looking at it, it hit me...I have a riveted boat, and the vinyl won't lay nice with the rivets. Does anyone have and Idea for putting letters on? I could make a stencil and paint it on, but I couldn't get too fancy.

Apply the decals, then put your boat in the sun, or gently use a heat gun to soften the decals, then use a rag to work them around the rivets.

Make sure you clean the area around the rivet heads 1st with some alcohol.
