Professional Boat Vinyl Wrapping
A quality vinyl boat wrap is much more than simply putting a large sticker on your boat.
Marine applications require careful surface preparation, material selection, planning and installation techniques to produce a clean, professional finish that can withstand the demanding coastal environment.
Our experienced installation team works with premium vinyl films from leading manufacturers including 3M™, Avery Dennison® and KPMF, giving you hundreds of potential colour and finish combinations.
Depending on your project, we can create everything from a subtle factory-style colour change to a completely custom design.
Boat wrapping options include:
- Full hull wraps
- Partial boat wraps
- Boat colour changes
- Yacht wraps
- Custom boat graphics
- Hull striping
- Boot stripes
- Accent panels
- Custom logos
- Boat names and lettering

- Two-tone colour combinations
- Matte, satin and gloss finishes
- Custom-designed graphic wraps
- Interior architectural film applications
Whether you're looking for a clean, modern finish or something completely outside the box, we can help bring your vision to life.
Give Your Boat a Completely New Colour
Tired of the factory colour of your boat?
Maybe you've purchased a new boat but don't love the factory colour. Perhaps your existing hull has faded over the years or you're simply ready for something different.
A boat vinyl colour change wrap can completely change the appearance of your vessel without permanently altering the original finish underneath.
Choose from an extensive selection of colours and finishes including:
- Gloss
- Satin
- Matte
- Metallic
- Carbon-style finishes
- Brushed finishes
- Colour-shifting effects
- Specialty colours
- Custom printed graphics
Vinyl gives you the flexibility to create a much more personalized appearance while maintaining the ability to remove the film in the future.
Your boat doesn't have to look like every other boat at the marina.
Make it yours.
Aluminum Boat Wraps
Aluminum boats are incredibly popular throughout British Columbia, particularly for fishing, recreation and exploring the coastal waters around Vancouver Island.
Whether you own a fishing boat, aluminum skiff, jet boat or recreational aluminum vessel, vinyl can be used to dramatically change its appearance.
We can wrap suitable aluminum surfaces in a wide variety of colours and finishes, allowing you to create anything from a traditional marine appearance to a completely custom look.
Surface condition is extremely important when wrapping aluminum boats. Before installation, we'll evaluate the existing surface and discuss any preparation that may be required to achieve the best possible result.
Fiberglass Boat & Yacht Wraps
Fiberglass boats provide an excellent canvas for vinyl colour changes and custom graphics.
If your fiberglass hull has become faded, dated or simply isn't the colour you want anymore, a professional vinyl wrap can give it an entirely new appearance.
We can work with suitable fiberglass surfaces on:
- Fishing boats
- Bowriders
- Wake boats
- Cabin cruisers
- Pleasure craft
- Sport boats
- Yachts
- Commercial vessels
- Other fiberglass watercraft
Before wrapping, we'll inspect the condition of the gelcoat or painted surface to determine whether it is suitable for vinyl installation.
Deep scratches, oxidation, peeling coatings, cracks and other surface imperfections may require preparation before wrapping.
The better the surface going in, the better the finished wrap will look.
Protect Your Boat With Paint Protection Film
Want to take your boat's protection a step further?
Ask us about 3M™ Paint Protection Film Pro Series.
After changing the colour of your boat, selected areas can potentially be protected with a premium clear paint protection film designed to provide an additional layer of protection against everyday environmental exposure and light-to-medium abrasion.
3M™ Paint Protection Film Pro Series features self-healing technology and can help protect suitable painted or finished surfaces from common environmental hazards.
It can be particularly useful in areas that receive additional wear and contact.
Depending on the vessel and application, we can discuss protection for areas such as:
- High-contact areas
- Fender contact zones
- Docking areas
- Bow sections
- Transom areas
- High-abrasion sections
- Other vulnerable surfaces
Want to combine colour change and protection? Ask us about creating a custom wrap + PPF package for your boat.
Boat Interior Makeovers With 3M™ DI-NOC™
Your boat wrap doesn't have to stop at the exterior.
Epic Wraps is also certified in 3M™ DI-NOC™ Architectural Finishes, opening up an entirely different way to renovate and modernize your boat's interior.
If your cabin, galley, helm or interior surfaces are looking dated, damaged or simply aren't your style anymore, architectural film can provide a dramatic transformation without the mess and downtime associated with traditional renovation.
3M™ DI-NOC™ offers a huge range of realistic decorative finishes designed to replicate materials such as:
- Wood
- Carbon
- Brushed metal
- Stainless steel
- Stone
- Marble
- Fabric
- Leather

This can be an excellent option for updating selected interior surfaces without completely removing and rebuilding existing components.
Imagine transforming:
- Cabinet doors
- Cabinet faces
- Dash panels
- Countertops
- Bulkheads
- Walls
- Tables
- Helm surfaces
- Interior trim
- Decorative panels
Instead of completely replacing an existing surface, we can often resurface it with a premium architectural film.
That can mean less demolition, less mess and potentially less downtime for your vessel.

Boat Wraps on Vancouver Island
Epic Wraps is based in Campbell River, British Columbia, in the heart of Vancouver Island's marine environment.
We're surrounded by some of the best boating, fishing and cruising waters in British Columbia, and we understand why Vancouver Island boat owners want their vessels to look their best.
We work with clients throughout Vancouver Island and can also travel for larger or specialized projects.
Depending on the size, location and scope of your boat wrap, we'll discuss the most practical approach for getting your vessel prepared and positioned for installation.
For larger yachts and vessels, planning ahead is especially important.
Contact us before your boat goes into the water for the season so we can discuss your project and installation requirements.
Is Your Boat Ready for a Wrap?
Before any boat is wrapped, the existing surface needs to be evaluated.
Vinyl is only as good as the surface underneath it.
For the best results, the substrate should be clean, smooth and properly prepared. Existing paint, gelcoat or other finishes must be sufficiently sound for vinyl installation.
We'll evaluate your boat and let you know if any preparation is recommended before wrapping.
This may include:
- Deep cleaning
- Degreasing
- Oxidation removal
- Surface preparation
- Adhesive or decal removal
- Minor surface correction
- Sanding or refinishing where necessary
If the existing surface has significant damage, peeling paint, severe oxidation, deep scratches or cracking, we'll discuss your options before proceeding.
Boat Wrap vs. Marine Paint
Boat owners often ask whether wrapping is better than repainting.
The answer depends on the vessel, the condition of the existing surface and what you're trying to accomplish.
A professional marine paint job can provide a beautiful permanent finish, but it can also involve significant preparation, labour and downtime.
A vinyl wrap provides another option.
Vinyl wrapping can offer:
- A dramatic colour transformation
- Hundreds of colour possibilities
- Custom graphics
- Faster installation than many traditional refinishing processes
- A removable finish
- The ability to change the appearance again later
- Protection of the underlying finish in appropriate applications
- Less invasive customization
For boat owners who want to change their vessel's appearance without permanently repainting it, vinyl can be an attractive alternative.
We'll help you determine whether wrapping makes sense for your particular boat.
Maintain Your Boat Wrap
Proper maintenance is important to getting the most from any vinyl installation.
Marine environments expose boats to UV, salt, moisture, dirt and other environmental conditions.
Regular cleaning and proper care can help maintain the appearance of your wrap.
We recommend discussing the appropriate cleaning and maintenance procedure for the specific vinyl selected for your boat.
As with any boat finish, avoid allowing contaminants and salt residue to remain on the surface for extended periods.
Your wrap deserves the same care you give the rest of your boat.
