Posted: Mon Jul 01, 2013 9:51 am Post subject: Motoman Black Reflective Decals Available |
|
|
The decals are ready to ship. I currently have 25 sets (left and right facing). Each Motoman is 4 inches long.
They are $5.00 each set.
The folks who posted their interest first in the original post will have first dibs.
If there is more interest I will have another set run.
To purchase these send me a PM with Motoman in the subject. I will PM you back with my address.
Please send a check or money order for the total number of sets you want and a self addressed envelope and I will ship you out the decals.
If you have any questions please ask.
Thanks, _________________ Rich

Gidday Folks,
This style of image would cut fine in reflective as you have mentioned because all the corners of the image are rounded and it is made up of a series of continuous cutting loops.
Where the other logos stuffed up is because when you try and cut a shape with a 45 degree turn etc, or non curved corner the cutter in a very quick motion has to stop, lift the small cutting blade, turn the blade, then drop the blade and continue cutting until the next stop is programmed.
All these stops and starts with thick reflective vinyl creates crappy joins in the material and when you then have to sit down and pull away the un-used sections of the decal everything pulls apart and the edges of the decal look cheap and the whole thing goes to shit... _________________ Cheers Grant

OK, no laughing now. Got my stickers sitting on my desk waiting for install. In my 60 years on this earth I have never installed a multi piece sticker such as these. How the hell do you go about doing it without mucking up all the little pieces?

Ok I won't laugh but I will snicker a little.
The clear tape that is on top of the stickers is what keeps the sticker together when you apply it.
What you do is carefully remove the paper that is on the bottom or side of the sticker that goes on the surface. The clear tape holds it all together. Apply the sticker with the clear tape attached, press the sicker parts down firmly and then slowly peel the clear tape off and your done. _________________ Rich
