Vinyl Applied to Surfaces That Get Hot

Hello! I was wondering if anyone knows about applying printed (with lam) and cut vinyl on trucks that carry asphalt, where the outer surface gets pretty hot. Is this okay to do?

try a sample. apply a sticker to a pot of boiling water.
increase your odds by only using cast materials, to avoid shrinkage/curling. could very well slide-off the truck over time like a pickle on a glass window, but it could work just fine.
at the very least, you should make sure to inform your client that you can't guarantee the life of your product for obvious reasons.

Good day, I have a customer who produced laminated graphics for a BBQ smoker. Graphics worked like a charm, no curling, melting, etc in over two years
