    Generally, I prefer boats with less graphics. Make the boat naked.

    It still surprises me that some mfg's are putting the word 'SURF' on their boats still.
    Me too. I'm surprised it hasn't sold (at least its still on the website). Been on the lot for a while.

          I think mine would benefit from the dated decals. Any chance of color fade? 2015 rz2

            I have the same decals on my 2015. I have been thinking about removing some (like the swoop around the RZ on the front, and some of mess on the back). I think these boats look too plain if everything is removed. Please repost if you make any changes.

                Same graphics here on my 2015. I actually like the look of some of the all white boats. I’m about 80% I’m ready to remove the decals.

                    The best way to do this is just with a heat gun and your own fingernails? I think I'm taking the plunge.

                      Some adhesive remover as well. Usually some adhesive residue stays on the outlines of the graphics and you can see the outline of where the graphics were after you peel them

                        3M makes a great aerosol adhesive remover for residue.. they make a plastic razor blade that comes in pretty handy for scraping without causing damage.. there is an adhesive remover wheel for a drill or die grinder that works really well.. and there’s a product called Tub O Towels that works pretty good to get the last little bits of adhesive off.. you may have to do some cutting and buffing if there is any sun fade...

                          Blackout I think your boat looks good with those graphics. I think as long as u don’t have the tribal graphics. That was a bad era for all the manufacturers

                            Thanks for the tips.

                            Some quick shops... That's a lot of white!

                              I def don’t hate how it looks now. But I think the “splash” look is starting to look a little dated either way. We are also throwing the idea around if putting some BABz graphics on it. This would clear the way.

                                I use the 3m aerosol as well...a lot. Pretty good stuff. Buy it by the case from our local auto body and paint supply shop. It also comes in a liquid squirt bottle. If you ever have to peel interior sea dek/gatorstep, or swim pads it's the way to go(the squirt top bottle that is). I use an old KeelGaurd applicator tool that I sharpened a bit to scrape the adhesive residue. Though I only use the plastic in areas I'm going to put something back over. If I want it finished and not needing a buff I just use cotton rags and let the adhesive remover soak in for a bit and it wipes away.
