There's precious little that comes close to the experience of driving an open-cockpit personal vehicle on the open water. Jet skis provide a motorcycle-like driving experience coupled with the perks of being on the water. A Jet Ski gives you the freedom to cut through the waves, explore beaches and coastal inlets and make the most out of your time on the water so why not take the time to upgrade the look of your Wave runner or Sea-Doo with a custom Jet Ski Wrap? And, whether you choose to just wrap some of your jet ski or the whole thing, we can guarantee that our rolls of uncut vinyl wraps are more affordable and less complicated to install than pre-made designs or decal kits.
Although the idea of wrapping jet skis may seem brand new (supposedly it was first done in China in 2015), it is really no different than wrapping snowmobile, boat or ATV. We have been selling these wraps for years and our customers love the convenience, selection and affordability. Why drop $1200 for a jet ski wrap when you can get a complete color change wrap from us for less than half the price? So, whichever you choose Rvinyl DIY Jet Ski wraps allow you to transform the look of your bike into an even cooler ride than before.
A DIY Jet Ski wrap is a roll of vinyl that adheres to the surface of your Yamaha or Sea-Doo like a second skin. The vinyl wrap covers the original paint-job and allows you to completely renew its appearance in terms of both color and texture. Vinyl jet ski wraps are like premium paint jobs but are more affordable and offer you choices that paint can't such as brushed metals, carbon fiber and more.
Premium vinyl film is fade-resistant and can withstand many years of riding without needing touch ups like paint. If you decide to install the wrap on your own, it’s vital to follow the correct procedures to ensure it won’t lift, peel or crack. Another bonus property of Jet Ski vinyl is that you can’t see the film joins. Unless you’re up close to the bike, the vinyl looks like one whole piece.
The best thing about using vinyl film is that you can pick and choose which areas you want to upgrade — a full vs. partial wrap.
A full Jet Ski wrap will protect and enrich the look of your entire ride, while a partial solution allows you to install the vinyl on individual sections. For example, you may be looking to add a fresh color to your windscreen and other parts.
A full or partial vinyl installation gives you the freedom to alter the color, texture and design of your chopper at a reasonable price tag. You can select solid shades, or go for bold graphics and logos that represent your passion or business.
While vinyl wraps enhance both the look and protection of your Jet Ski, there are other advantages as well. Instead of swapping your beloved bike for a new one or investing in an expensive paint job, wraps can showcase your Jet Ski’s best features.
Compared to the properties of a paint job, vinyl wrap is more durable, has a longer lifespan and requires less skill and time. If your Jet Ski has a nick in its vinyl, it’s a simple fix that requires quick patchwork. There is no need to redo the entire wrap like you would with a paint job.
Although the wrap’s durability relates to the brand, it also depends on the installation quality. A DIY vinyl application includes simple steps that can work as a protective layer on your sea-doo. Vinyl film can protect your jetski from the elements and other minor damages after a thorough installation process.
Because vinyl is more resistant to scratches than most paints, they make the most sense when investing your time and money.
Compared to maintaining the paint job on your Jet Ski, vinyl upkeep is a breeze. When it comes to painting, it requires cleaning, repainting, polishing and buffing. It takes more skill and energy that can cut into your play time.
Maintaining vinyl film is a straightforward process that necessitates warm water, soap and a soft brush. Never use a pressure washer to remove dirt and grime from your bike because it can peel and lift the vinyl. Other ways to maintain your jetski include:
What type of customization are you looking for? A full or partial installation? No matter what you decide, you can design your Jet Ski based on single colors, digitally printed designs, images and logos, or you can color block your bike for a unique twist. Your options are infinite — from chameleon films and matte chrome vinyl to metallic.
Because the look of your watercraft says a lot about who you are and what you like, vinyl is the best way to show off your personality. You can even have it match your brand or opt for vibrant colors to add a scheme that hasn’t been seen on the open road before.
A regular paint job for your Jet Ski will likely cost you up to $1,500. As with any paint job, the price is dependent on the amount of work that must be done before you have it painted. You can expect to pay a third of this for premium vinyl wraps, and if you wrap your jetski yourself, you could save as much as $1,000.
Relying on vinyl allows you to take control of your budget by investing in the material you need in bulk. You can control each step if the DIY process. The film is also a better deal when you want a combination of quality and value. Even if you own more than one Jet Ski, vinyl makes it easy to install the same graphics and designs across all your rides.
You can skip over the high upfront cost of paint detailing and rely on the long-term advantages and cost-effectiveness of wraps.
Paint and primer come with detrimental solvents and chemicals, along with toxic fumes and paint chips. However, the vinyl wrap doesn’t demand anything but heat for installation and water and soap for maintenance. Jet Ski films are safer for the environment and anyone working with the material.
Vinyl wraps are versatile in how temporary or permanent you want it to be. Installation is simple, and so is removal. For example, you may want to change the color to a new design within a year or opt for a different look with the change of seasons or shows you enter. While paint is permanent, vinyl is simple and fast to apply. When you’re ready for a graphics, logo, color or design update, you can remove the vinyl without damage to the Jet Ski’s surface.
Searching for the best vinyl wrap for your Jet Ski can lead to a few other questions you may have.
Your options are limitless — you can wrap any type of Jet Ski with high-quality vinyl film, such as:
Vinyl wraps are ideal for any Jet Ski DIY enthusiast who wants a fresh look. You can wrap almost every material with vinyl, including fiberglass, aluminum, carbon fiber, plastic and polycarbonate.
You can cover vehicle from front to back or only a few sections for a subtle transformation. The only element that vinyl doesn’t adhere to is rust.
Many factors determine how much it will cost to wrap, such as:
If you’re wondering how long the installation will take, it depends on the design, amount of material, size of the watercraft and most importantly, whether you have a helping hand or not.
The exact amount of vinyl you need to wrap your Jet Ski depends on the various components you want to refresh.
It’s best to determine the area of each jet ski component, then add on several yards of material to be safe.
The durability of Jet Ski vinyl will outlast the properties of a premium paint job any day. Vinyl film has a protective coating that keeps it from the elements, and it’s also fade resistant.
With the premium-quality vinyl being able to withstand UV rays and other elements, you won’t have to worry about matching your repair color to the rest of your personal watercraft. There is no need to wrap the entire Jet Ski again if one area gets damaged, either. If a chip or nick occurs, all it needs is quick and easy patchwork.
Custom wrapping is durable enough to last several years with minimal maintenance, while paint requires regular and consistent upkeep each year. Painting demands more skill and patience, as well as repainting when fading or scratches occur.
The durability of your Jet Ski wrap also depends on the quality of its materials and installation. It’s essential to partner with a trusted company with top brands.
Finding the right brand of vinyl to work with depends on its quality, value and finish selection. While no one brand is the best, Rvinyl carries premium Jet Ski films from 3M™, RWRAPS™, Avery™ and ORACAL® — each delivering their own set of benefits, colors, designs and textures.

It made it really nice to hold up to the cabinet I want to cover and see how it looked in that room's lighting. It became quite obvious which color we really liked for the space.
