79, The CAD file is saved!! Also, these were made on the best quality of 3M Scotchcal. The printing was not actually printing but rather 3M's heat transfer thermal process. They are guarantee'd against fading for 5 years and that's 5 years in Florida with it in the sun all the time. The other AWSA and USA decals are printed with inks so they will fade long before these will. They look the same as the other ones IE: the vinyl is the same thickness and ther aren't any bumps between colors. The gloss is the same too. A pro vinyl guy or printer would be able to tell though.
The Scotchcal comes with the same backing sheet that is used on large grafics. You pre position and masking tape half of it to the surface first. Then you lift the other half and cut off half of the backing. Then stick half of the decal on. then remove the rest of the backing and finish sticking on the decal. This method gaurantees the proper position of the decal. I always wondered before seeing and using the system how they would get big decals on say the side of a semi trailer in the right spot!! Don't worry, I'm sending a instruction sheet with the decals!! |

OK bear with us brain-cell challenged folks one more time on this size thing. By the above, are you saying that the flag like badge, the smaller one, is the only size that one was ever made, and just the "since 25" badge is the one that was originally (70s) bigger, but then got smaller, so if I get one of your larger since 25 badge and the currently store available, smaller flag one, my 76 tique will have the "original" set up? |

8122,
I want two of them. I'm ready to pay as soon as you know the price. I'll send an email with my info. I noticed the black and white Correct Craft label behind the taped on decal. Did you have those made? My boat is missing those and I've been looking for replacements. I think the stock ones were chrome but I like the black better. It all looks great! Thanks for the effort. |

79, I believe that the black and white nameplates are pretty hard to come by. White Lake Marine has the chrome/black ones though: nameplates

I got the invoice from the sign shop that made the decals. The total was $500 so I need to get $20 each plus $4 for mail and I will break even when I sell the 26 that were printed. I can be reached by email through my profile or directly at:
pbrainard@wistool.com You can email and we will exchange address's. Label your emails as "decal" so I don't miss it. I will also post all the info again in the "for sale" section. |
