Choosing materials
When choosing the right materials, it's
important to do your research, listen
to what your customer is asking for,
and consider where the end product
will be located, how it will be used and
maintained, and your customer's budget.
* Saltwater versus freshwater will
affect your professional offerings
and choices. Will your projects be
outside, inside or under cover? Both
the elements and cleaning products
take their toll on all materials.
* Coated vinyl is designed to be UV-,
mold- and water-resistant, yet the
layer of protection may not last as
long as a laminated marine vinyl.

* Laminated marine vinyl offers a
sealed layer of protection similar to
coated vinyl. It prohibits rips and
tears and is more appropriate for
covers. Acrylic and polyester are
wise fabric choices for marine
work, as are expandable vinyl
materials that offer abrasion, mold
and mildew resistance.
* Vinyl specifically labeled "marine"
will outlive other vinyls. Reputable
commercial manufacturers source
vinyl specified for use in outdoor
settings, yet the deterioration we see in
barely a year is astounding, even when
the materials are under cover yet open
to the elements of sun, wind and rain.
