Reflective for low-energy plastic?

[letterman7]

Hi all,
I've got a fire department that bought themselves a new ATV (Bombardier, I believe). Stopped out to look at it yesterday and it looks like 99% of the body is a low energy plastic. There are a few decals from the factory.. not very thick like Convex.. that are already on there (will be removed).. and are stuck pretty well. I put a scrap piece of 2mil on various places of the body and it was easily removed after a few minutes. True, it might set up after a while, but I don't want to take the chance. The main portion of the body is a lightly textured finish, so that's going to make things more interesting. They want, of course, everything reflective, and after a fairly exhaustive web search turned up nothing. I'm somewhat surprised that Convex doesn't offer something like that.. one of my options would be to laminate reflective to the convex, but geez, what a pain.

Any ideas for alternatives?

Most reflective has pretty aggressive adhesive... But the best bet would be to apply the reflective over UHT vinyl.

if part of the body is textured, then I don't think you have much choice but to use the Pit-Bull.

That's my thought as well, sky. I've been reading up on the Pitbull. Never used Convex before, but this is probably a good application for it since they'll be crashing through woods with it.
