[QUOTE="onthewater102, post: 458641, member: 13702"] I used FRP over foam in my boat and it's excellent - though I painted it with TuffCoat, so I can't speak to how you could cleanly apply vinyl over it. Being so thin I don't think you'd be able to wrap the vinyl around the 1/8" thickness of the FRP. Perhaps you could attach the vinyl to the FRP first, then finish the edges with Trim-Lok Edge Trim or something similar? You would have to use construction adhesive to attach the FRP to your stringers/foam, but that shouldn't be an issue. This is the stuff I'm talking about: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NL3ZSE6/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1 [/QUOTE]
