Whatever you come up with, make sure it's easy to read while in traffic.I see so many cars where people actually paid for a window wrap which can only be read standing next to the vehicle while it's not moving.

A few key points. 1) this stuff is toxic and can hurt you or worse (be 100% sure you buy respirator and have fresh air blown in) and only do it in unoccupied unit. maybe worst (toxic) stuff I have worked with residentially... bugs were dropping dead by the window...2) no it is not forever permanent--but what it is. 3) prep, prep, and more prep. 4) I would use it on a surround that gets some water splash--not where it gets constant water or submersed (like actual tub, need heavy duty stuff there). 5) follow all instructions and research well....cheap (25-30 bucks + roller)--but a lot of prep labor. it would make the surround look nice enough for the sale and/or get you through a few tenancies on a shoestring until you or someone replaces it.
