I need to letter a couple of vehicles for a parade and I don't wont to go out and buy new rolls of vinyl for a couple of small jobs. Is there any way to make regular vinyl easy to remove after a few hours ?

Phil...For a few hours in a parade, I'd use regular old 3 mil calendared vinyl. It should come off with no trouble at all. Just make sure to get it off as soon as possible. You might have to use a few squirts of Rapid Remover for a bit of adhesive that might be left.

Wax the vehicles (or better yet, make them wax them) then stick the vinyl on. It'll come off pretty simply.

Or, you could use that paint-mask stenciling type of vinyl. It should stay put & remove easily. If you need a color other than what they come in, spray'm.

Paint mask works great and you can spray it with Krylon for color.
