Reproducing - Power Convertible Top Pump Markings/Labels
« on: February 06, 2012, 06:14:11 PM »
I'm having some Gerber Edge decals printed and a "G" stamp made for after I get the parts re-plated zinc-dichromate.

Can someone please post a picture of what my missing decal should look like? (The one where the question mark points)

Bryan,
Here's a couple of pictures of your missing decal. One of the original and then a remake I made.

OK I got the decals.  They charged me $26 for several of them.  I only asked for one of each but the material is 12" wide and they put several on a 12" strip.  I physically traced the letters in AutoCAD.  They are shaped correctly.  It is not a font that graphics folks usually have.
If you'd like to subsidize my two, just send me a few bucks and I'll send you a set as long as they last.

Now that I have a closeup, she really messed up my font for the red & white one!  My letters did NOT look like that.

OH and by the way, the "G"  ink stamp is not a G, it's a "6."
