Our toad and RV are used as part of our business.

We have magnetic signs on our toad that brand our business. I'd like to have signs on our class A RV that can also be temporarily mounted like the magnetic signs. Of course I can't use magnetic signs on fiberglass.

But I'm coming up short as to how I can accomplish this.

Of course I can't use magnetic signs on fiberglass.

I don't mind drilling or gluing something to the outside of our rig if necessary as long as it lets me mount a vinyl or aluminum sign.

Any ideas here?

THANKS! Hope you had a great Memorial Day.

Check with a sign company. They can print on a vinyl that is peel and stick, but it has a quick release feature and will peel off. (Busses use this type of vinyl for advertising purposes) Peels right off.

Do you need the sign when moving or only when parked? If when parked, you could get a windshield cover that has your signage on it. They can be either opaque or see-through.

Good question! The sign is primarily for when we are moving.

I've never heard of this before. I'll look in to it!

What size is the sign?

I owned a vinyl sign and screen printing shop in the 1990's there are a lot of possible options out there for you, depending on what you mean by temporary. Vinyl lettering comes in a wide range of types, some are static cling, some have temporary adhesive, others use acrylic adhesives, and stick instantly and never come back off. There is one sign I made back in the mid 1990's that I drive by occasionally, it was a mix of glitter style vinyl which had aggressive acrylic adhesive (real pain to work with), standard long life cast vinyl on a compressed PVC backer board. I have been watching it degrade for years, the first to go was the cast vinyl which started peeling up after about 15 years, then the PVC substrate board started to crack, corners broke off, etc. but through all that the glitter graphics have remained firmly stuck down.
