Anyone make custom decals? I needs one or two made.

Posted by Wes "I'm Baaaaack" Yates on March 31, 2011 at 11:00pm in Building Secrets, Tips, Advice, Discussion

I need someone here who makes their own custom decals to make a few for a special build I'm doing.

Yes, I know there are decal transfer sheets you can buy to do this, but I only need a few from my artwork.I just don't want to buy a whole pack of the stuff for a few images. Plus all I have is an inkjet :-(

Message or email me (sales.infoATchronicbluesguitar.com)

    Bert, and Mudcat, I'll post some tips on this later, no time right now.

    Its very simple, but there are a few potential pitfalls and I will do my best to provide some help.

    Interesting timing on this, as I was thinking of posting a tip discussion on the topic of making waterslide decals for logos and such. Heres a sample of one of mine.

    I use inkjet waterslide paper, and true text fonts to make those, but you can print anything from text to tattoo flash art.

    Its a little tricky learning to manage the thin film, just like whan I was a model building kid, and the background shows up on some surfaces more than others. But it would be hard to do much better at such low cost.

    I own a graphics company and I can make stickers, more like bumper sticker thickness. I don't think this is what you want but just an option if anyone needs any.
