Question Question about Vinyl Stripes.

I am having to replace the stripes on my rear deck.


I ordered and received them in the mail yesterday.
Problem is the guy that is going to install them can't do it for two weeks.
So I have to keep them boxed till then.

What is the shelf life of these while not installed?
How long can they remain on the paper and still be good to use?

Thanks.

Long time. But do your installer a favor and lay them out flat on the floor in a spare room or something.

My friend had some stripes for almost a year before we installed them, they were just like they were when he bought them, you will be fine!

They will be fine, but yeah if you can I'd lay them out on the floor somewhere and let them flatten out. This will make it easier on the install guy than if they are tightly coiled up.
