Vinyl Printing

[MicraFish]

Ok, get me all the sizes and fonts you want doing etc. so you would be sticking the numberplate to what, bonnet? theres a guy at work who has done this on a landrover and it just looks like hes done it with a permanent marker

Yep, will be sticking it to the nosecone to replace the positively awful brick like numberplate plinth! That's the idea, except I don't want it done in permanent marker

Like this one:

Info can be found here: Number Plate stuff

I will PM you my numberplate

could ya do me one saying 'my other car is a broom' (not for me tht 1 btw lol)

and also one saying 'Rust Is Lighter Than Carbon Fibre' saw someone else on here ask for that and quite liked the idea lol
would it be possible to do both stickers in some sort of fancy writing?

haha i was loooking at doing this, i could knock this up for you, pm sent

 

[imp124]

now have black vinyl

 

[Stani1029]

ive just bought 2 new sticky plates, front and back on reflective material for £33 delivered. think of the cash you can make haha

 

[imp124]

I can get both white and yellow reflective vinyl i have found so that could work

 

[Stani1029]

lol i should have waited, im still trying to think of something you could rustle me up.....:glare:

 

[imp124]

I have been getting my confidence up slowly with this cutter and have also done some quite big jobs (thanks Ed!) i bought some tshirt vinyl on an off chance and had a little play with it, not very interesting results but for a 1st attempt it has come out really well!

I didnt think there was so much skill and hints and tips in vinyl cutting / pressing but there is, a real eye opener!

P.S. that isnt a scorch mark around the decal aparently it should come out with a wash as its the backing

 

[Ed]

Cool,

That reminds me, need to get some fusion ones and another Fletcher sticker from you...

 

[imp124]

Ed,

i have done another Fletcher one which will be sent off tomorrow hopefully. Just message me if you require some fusion ones etc

Also i have noticed 'stick me up' has disappeared from the trader area, i hope this wasn't my doing :S

[Ed]

Neil hasn't been on here for months, also he never responded to a request so his area has been removed.

 

[imp124]

still doing vinyl graphics cheap, still learning getting better now i think

 

[sp13rsy]

would you be able to do the 1.3 super s sticker if so how much would you want to do it?
thanks

 

[imp124]

Do you mean like this? is it for a K11? i will probably need the height and width of the original decal if you are replacing one or i could make a decent guess

also a colour would need to be chosen, Pm me if you need

Steve

 

[sp13rsy]

[Stani1029]

[imp124]

Oooh is it time you can do my numberplate now ? I'd love one, purdy please?

I have done one on an MX-5 the other day and it turned out great, i can do it on a reflective white or non reflective backround and i have the correct font, spacing etc, just tell (give a picture) of exactly how you want it and it will be done

i know what i want. 998cc in black and as close to the micra font as you can get please. pm me price etc cheers

That is the micra font:

Depends how big dimensionally you want it

 

[Stani1029]

perfect and ill go for 25mm high by whatever it turns out long the way. also i want 998cc. if thats what the micras are lol youve confused me now haha

 

[imp124]

:doh: i was thinking about the K10, yes your right it should be '998cc' this will be rectified, £2 inc p+p for that

 

[Stani1029]

ok pm me your paypal mate

the problem would be how small it needed to be on that really, that is all one layer, if i did it each colour would be on a different layer of vinyl if you know what i mean

 

[Alexx117]

yeah i know what you mean mate, what bout doing it all in white (cause my cars black?)

 

[Jontrev]

Something i made for saturday night

love it, umm any chance you could do a sticker saying: 'i would rather have aids than a saxo' in any bright colour and any font size or type i know im not being specific but i really dont mind! choice is yours..

 

[MicraFish]

Got my numberplate today, thanks dude! Was planning to fit it today, but haven't - it's flipping raining If it dries up in a bit, then I will get it one! Looks fab though!

Ok great, put up a pic when its done

 

[MicraFish]

Here you go man, finally got around to fitting it today!

The vinyl itself was brilliant, trouble is, I cocked it up lol

MMM check out that quality vinyl fitting lol

 

[imp124]

you can sometimes get some of the bubbles out with a small pin i found, looks great though, i though the vinyl would look grey!

 

[Kev]

Did you dry or wet fit it?

Due to the curves on your bumper I would have recommended wet fitting it to avoid the creases and bubbles.

 

[r-reg-sr]

looks the biz!

 

[MicraFish]

Wet fitting? What's that? I didn't do that
I will try the pin thing though!

 

[Kev]

Like when fitting sun strips onto front screens there is a curve in the glass. As with your bumper it curves round, thus making dry fitting vinyl graphics or stickers quite difficult.

Wet fitting is where the surface is thoroughly cleaned first, some diluted washing up liquid in a clean spray bottle can be used to spray the area where the numberplate is going to be fitted. Peal the backing off the vinyl and spray the sticky side with spray bottle.

You then place the vinyl on the car and work out the bubbles and water with a squeegee.

Doing this would have achieved a perfect finish on your numberplate.
