I want to put the boat name on the seats of our inflatables. they are
both avons - both seats are FRP but have recently been painted with
leftover Sterling LP - looks good.

We know the letters stick to LP, the question is will body heat,
sweat, oil, suntan lotion, etc ruin the vinyl letters that we're
sitting on.

Should be OK. The vinyl lettering we have is quite durable. One
work of caution though. If you are cruising to places where there is crime,
when you are ashore, having the name of your boat on your dingy servers to
alert would-be thieves that it is likely you are not aboard.

That's why we have 2 - one to leave tied up behind the boat to show
"someone's home" - learned that in Fiji
