Performance & Practical Benefits

These decals are more than cosmetic stickers. They are built for life on the water—sun, spray, heat, vibration, and constant use. You will feel the quality as soon as you handle them: thin enough to lay down smoothly but tough enough to resist peeling and fading. Once applied, the finish stays tight and secure, hugging the lower cowl with a clean edge that looks like it came straight from the Mercury factory floor.

Whether your original decals have started to crack, fade, or lift, the upgrade is instantly noticeable. The bright white lettering pops without clashing, restoring that confident Verado presence. And installation is easier than most people expect. With a bit of patience and a steady hand, the decals settle in smoothly, giving you a polished look that holds strong through seasons of use.

These factory-matched replacements help maintain resale value too. Buyers notice when a motor looks cared for—and decals are one of the first things they see. Keeping your Verado looking sharp sends the message that the engine behind it is treated the same way.

Why Buy OEM

If you want your outboard to look exactly the way Mercury intended, OEM decals are the only way to get there. They fit right, match the paint, and stay put in harsh marine environments. Aftermarket decals may look similar at first glance, but they rarely hold their color or withstand sun exposure the way Mercury originals do.

With OEM, you are getting the right material, the right adhesive, and the confidence that the decal will last as long as your outboard does. It is the kind of detail serious boaters do not compromise on—because when you are already investing in a premium engine, the finishing touches should live up to the same standard.
