Strng- a local Vinyl shop cut a stencil, I brought them the cabinet before blasting it so they could take dimensions for letters. I also brought a picture I found on google images of the cabinet so they could match up the font. So, once it was painted red and wet sanded, I then applied the vinyl stencils (one is pictured above) and taped off the rest of the cabinet to prevent any overspray. Painted over the stencils, let it dry for about an hour and removed the stencils to reveal the painted on lettering. Wet sanded everything with 1500 grit and then buffed to a shine. Thanks for all the compliments guys- really appreciate it. Great job. Thanks for the info.
