Wraps for Rods?

Full graphic wraps for boats and cars are all the rage. Has anyone tried this on a custom rod? Would the weight be a factor that you would not want to deal with? Durability? I know guy who can do it for me but not sure I want to spend the money without knowing what problems other have run into when doing this? Anybody tried it yet?

Weight weight weight

What type pattern are you wanting?

Where do you live? I'll help you find a hydrographic printer in your area...should be a MUCH better option than wrapping the thing.

Hadn't thought about hydro print! Wraps would seem to be less expensive and easier to redo if necessary. I guess hyrdo would be light?er

How much is your guy wanting to charge for a rod?

Hydrographics are generally priced as low as $45 and up from there.
