Bed Rails

[ExPatSquareBdy]

I got the original chrome "Boat" type bedrails with the faux-wood decal. Now, after 40 years I need to re-do the decor decal (faded to almost nothing left). Anyone with an idea, where to source self-adhesive wood decor which is meant for the outside (UV resistant)?

3M Di-Noc isn`t. They are for interiors and furniture. It`s a great product but too expensive to tear it off after two years of moisture, UV and elements.

Thank you for your ideas.

I'd guess Avery or TrimBrite would still offer something. But it would be in wide sheets, for Roadmaster wagons and Wagoneers and such.

Thx. I`ll check that. Worst case - I`ll end up buying the rear panel sheet for a Roadmaster Wagon. It should be long enough not to patch up too often. Price will be hefty of course.

But for the true 70ies look...well...

I had the same thing on mine I purchased 2.5 years ago. Peeled off faded striping, thought about re-doing it. After I peeled old striping, left the aluminum showing. Did not look too bad so I left it that way.

Found it. Believe it or not: Wood vinyl Duck Tape. If not nice: I'll leave it blank.
