Le Mans Sticker question

[jagdpanther]

For those of you loons that are designing your own decals for the trip to Le Mans, I would like to ask where you get yours done??

If you dont wanna post on here feel free to email me with some ideas on prices and whether they're the decals that use abrasive sticky stuff or whether they're easy to remove without damaging the paint and fibreglass on a Cerbie

Ta for any help

Thanks for that, having a look now

What about companies used for printing out bespoke graphics?

Erm nevermind, just seen it on the website OH:

x2. They have been very very helpful and have done all the logos for the White Rabbit Racing crew this year. I just got the first examples through today and they look great.

Ahhh yes, Ive seen the Elise...looks the biz

Whats the situation with getting them off again?

I know you can use a hairdrier, but will it damage the Cerbera's paintwork in any way?

Leave it in the sun and that helps for the removal too.

I rang H. Graphics above to ask this very question....they said that the best way to avoid any problems with removal is to cover the area to stickered with a thin coat of vaseline first...the decal remains properly in place but can be easily removed afterwards.

Shall give that a try...might sticker mine up (to a limited extent) first then see what happens

Actually, if you are one of those who regularly waxes your car, then simply heating the sticker and peeling slowly will remove it and almost all the glue. The rest will come off with a wash and polish.

Had no problems with these...

Thats a good tip. I'm slightly worried about putting stickers on my car as it's an old 205, and their paintwork isn't the thickest so could eaily peel off with the sticker.
