Not the best paintability and it loses its flexibility after a few years

Volcom, it's like quad but printable oil based and I have seen it out of the weather where it's pliable after 15 plus years.

Vulkem is pretty good but it’s just a polyurethane, the UV kills this technology over time

Ehh also Vulkem is loaded with Plasticizers that leach out of it into your paint and fuck your paint job up as the material loses its flexibility.

I guess I said printable. I wouldn't use it without painting it. But for painted areas it blows quad out of the water.
