Decal Removal Experts

Decal and vinyl removal is the careful stripping of old lettering, graphics, or vinyl wrap from the hull without damaging the gelcoat underneath. The process typically involves heat and controlled lifting rather than scraping, followed by cleanup of any adhesive residue left behind. It's often done as a step before new decals, a repaint, or a resale prep detail.



Old decals and adhesive residue left on a boat for years become more difficult to remove cleanly the longer they sit, especially under constant Gulf sun exposure, which can bake vinyl and adhesive into the gelcoat surface. Improper removal attempts can leave adhesive ghosting or surface damage that then requires additional correction work to fix.

Next Wave approaches decal removal the way any careful gelcoat work should be handled, with attention to what's underneath the vinyl. The work is done mobile at your dock, so there's no need to transport the boat elsewhere. With over 10 years in the marine industry, locally owned, licensed and insured status, and free estimates, the job is scoped properly before anything is removed.
