Tube Graphics

Can anyone point me in the right direction, we need some graphics for our tubes on our ribs , we tried letterflex no good , is there a special vinyl which sticks to the tubes ? If so what is it , or is there a specialist company that can help which are not going to break the bank ?

Cheers

There are flexible vinyls designed for these types of applications, if you PM me I'll send you a sample to try out.

Wet & Wild graphics do something called "flexovinyl" which is pretty good.
