What vinyl to use for laptop lids?

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I would like to know what vinyl I should use for laptop lids.  I am expecting extreme abrasion and rubbing actions.  Also, the decals I want to use are going to have small independent bits and thin lines: the Stargate Atlantis laptop logo.  I don't want it to be permanent because people might want to take it off, but I want it to last a while.  No glossy, metalic, or transparent vinyls please.

Whatever vinyl it is, it needs to stand up to edge peeling.  I'm thinking some sort of very thin vinyl.

Any suggestions?

Oh, you mean this post!  I thought you were talking about the other post!

Yeah 2 people on ebay are selling those decals like hot cakes.  I bought 3.  The first one is starting to peel a little at one of the letters because it ends in a 5 degree point and seems to be 3 mil vinyl.

I considered using a clear over it, but it would take away from the authentic value.
