Is there anyone out there who does custom pain jobs on cowlings? I want the cowling on my pontoon's outboard painted with a Texas flag.

Take the cowling to a custom bike shop. Or a good paint shop.

Wrap might be less expensive.

I think paint would hold up better in the sun. The boat stays in a covered dock, but the outboard still gets a lot of sun. I've had wraps and put them on a number of boats as a sponsor. IMO wraps are a good way to advertise a business for about 3 years, then they need to be redone. I want something to last 10 or more years.

Maybe look into getting it hydrodipped.

Possibly ask Tuff Skinz if they can make a custom cover using graphics? Possibly in trade out advertising for you both? Don't know how that part works but it may be possible to achieve. Just a thought.
