Had Richard (gatorpumps) paint an extra set of doors for a wayne 60 he restored just in case I wanted to change the brand later. Can't begin to tell you last time I applied a decal. Bought them at a swap meet in Feb and been debating whether I should try it or not. Decals are made by Berkeley decals,3124 Shattuck Ave, Berkely 5,Calif thornwall 3-7402 is the phone #. Guessing there close to 60 years old. Had a lot of trouble getting one to let loose and its a little off,but felt I couldn't move it around anymore without destroying it. Guess I'll have to get a Globe made.

Great job, Paul... I have a couple Flying A decals, that for a short period of time; I flirted with the idea of doing something similar... But, I did not/do not have the cojones to try!

Paul,
Looks great.
Vinyl technology has improved a lot over the years. I have my decals "laminated" + using the BEST_QUALITY Vinyl: 3M Controltac
When I apply them to metal substrate, no bubbles whatsoever.
