vinyl is a HUGE pain in the ***. i think its easier to body fill, prime, and paint a box... i phuckin hate stretchin vinyl!!!

vinyl is way easier than painting. that box can be vinyled in 4 hours doing a very good job. painting would take much longer. vinyl also covers up any imperfections. with good quality vinyl even screw holes do not need to be filled in.

thats the problem i had though... the shop i worked at was too cheap to by any decent vinyl, so try to get it flat when its supposed to be flat and around corners when they were there SUCKED BALLS!

but hey if you like vinyl, more power to ya

the first 2 or 3 boxes I put vinyl on was a pain

now after 100+ it's easy..I even purchased a sewing

machine for the purpose

i guess its not that it is really hard... its just frustrating, especially when you are trying to hide seams.
