Do you think this is a vinyl sign on the snow plow? I like the way it looks but I wonder how it's done and if it is a good idea to do? I mean how long could such a sign last?

No they are vinyl. I am getting ready to do the same thing to mine. Arent the graphics on the plows when you buy them vinyl. they do last a few seasons.

we do these and they can be done in vinyl, and there are a few things that can be done to help make them last longer.
I would expect them to last 3-6 years depending on how crazy you plow and how well you take care of your equipment.

Do you have to spray over the signs with a clear paint? Or no?

Do you have any pictures of the plows you have done? That is a great product idea to sell.

No, You dont have to.
We can put a clear film over it that will help them last a little longer.
But IMO i would just put the vinyl on there and look at it as a ever othr year expense..or maybe every 3 or 4 years depending on whos in the driver seat.
the cost of it starts at about $50 without install or shipping.

I am sure we have some pictures somewhere, its just a matter of finding some. I will try to find some and post a few.
