Performance & Practical Benefits
This Mercury Marine decal does more than improve appearances—it restores essential maintenance information exactly where you need it. Printed with crisp, high-visibility graphics, the label stays readable through heat, washdowns and salt exposure. The adhesive delivers a tight, secure bond, so once it’s in place, it stays in place.
In daily use, you’ll appreciate how the decal brings order and clarity to your engine maintenance routine. It helps ensure correct cowl removal procedures, reduces guesswork, and keeps your V12 running the way Mercury engineered it to. Whether you’re servicing the engine yourself or leaving it to a technician, having accurate, OEM-specified labeling always makes the job smoother and more reliable.
Why Buy OEM
A decal might seem simple, but generic replacements often fade quickly, peel under heat, or fail to match Mercury’s precise layout. With this genuine Mercury Marine part, you’re getting the exact label your engine shipped with—same material, same print quality, same durability.
It’s a cost-effective way to keep your premium V12 outboard in proper factory condition. OEM decals help maintain clarity, resale appeal and service accuracy, and they hold up to the demanding environments where big horsepower engines thrive. When advising fellow boaters, the recommendation is clear: trust the Mercury part engineered specifically for the engine you count on.
