recommendations including mine would be to have some form of a UV protecting
primer down over wood or composite. I'm certain the UV properties of the vinyl
wrap have been researched to some degree. I just do not specifically know any
numbers.

Hi All,
Anyone try vinyl wrap instead of paint?
Cedric is almost done with the fill process and has to decide on paints.
I’ve been reading a bit on vinyls and talked with the planevinyl.com folks -
but still unsure. There are sure some advantages - especially weight if we can
skip the prime.
Can you wrap directly on filled/sealed composite? I’ve tried a few small bits
and it seems secure and smooth.
If you wrap directly on composite, how protected is the composite from UV?
Clearly a vinyl wrap is not for long term outside parking, but longevity is
pretty good if stored in a hanger - and if a replaceable leading edge doubler
is used.
Cheers,
Owen
