Know of any good sources for high performance vinyl boot top tape?…I can find plenty of single width tapes…what I am looking for is one that has a 1/2” & 1/4” & 1/8” (or something similar to these dimensions) multiple stripe (black color) all together on one backing so that everything keeps proper spacing during application. Any help would be greatly appreciated…

Regards,
Bob

Custom car shop? Auto supply house?

3M makes tape like your describing. Maybe a napa store or auto customizing shop could help. May be available on line.

Take a look at West Marine. They've got a bunch of colors in many sizes. We used their stuff on juniors program Sabots that sit in the water for six months. It held up fine.

You would think this wouldn’t be a hard thing to find, but after spending a couple of hours on the internet looking under boat, car, motor home and aircraft headings I have yet to find anything close to what I am looking for.

There are numerous places for single stripe tape from 1/16” to 2” wide…I can even find a couple double stripe tapes like I am looking for from custom car graphics companies… but they are very narrow stripes…the closest I have found is a 1/8” and 1/16” stripe side by side. I have a call into the guy who does my commercial signs but haven’t heard back form him yet.

Regards,
Bob

Find someone that does vinyl signs. They can make anything up to the side of a 40' trailer.
