Absolutely..

Would be the same as a vehicle wrap but much much simpler.

To ge a good sharp line like the edges of the cabinet, you gently warm the vinyl with a hair dryer... it then laminates itself to the object it is covering.

Its just printed vinyl and so same basic principals apply.. main one being that the surface to be as smooth as possible, which is why some sort of clear coat or varnish be applied to the surface to make it very smooth... youll get much better adhesion this way.

How long will the decals last??? Depends..

How much did you pay for them??

If getting decals printed then ensure that the vinyl being used is 10 year caste... anyone doing real cheap vinyl work is more than likely using banner vinyl or similar... guaranteed for 6 months only.

10 year caste is 10 years full sun... now thats some statement especially in a QLD summer.
 But if the rules of application are adhered to, then on a pinball.. 10 years is no problem
