I've heard of using clear nail polish. I tried it the other day, but the
decal I was trying to reseal was too stiff and kept popping up; I'm going to
try again, using duct tape to hold it down until the polish dries. (I had
duct tape in the boat, but was ready to leave when I tried this, and was too
lazy to undo the cover and climb back into the boat again - it was on a
trailer in a lot.)

The heat will make the glue release. It won't make the glue adhere again.
Most just take them off and leave them off. If you want you can order new
ones from SeaRay and leave them in a safe place until you get ready to
sell the boat. Then install to make the boat look like it has been took
care of.

Thanks for the help. I'm curious though, if you can take them off with a
heat gun can't you put them back on with one?

Hi all. I've followed this group for a couple years but never had a
reason
to post before. I have a simple problem, the decals on my boat (Sea
Ray)
are starting to come off. How do you get them stuck back down?

If they are decals, then you can get new ones from Sea Ray. Use a
heat gun, remove the old ones and replace them - there is no way to
properly reglue the decal.

If it's a placard type deal, then epoxy will do you fine.
