Completely missed the point I'm afraid , why reproduce something when the originals are still available ? .
Oh & restoration is not reproduction ::) .

Sorry, i worded that wrongly. What i should have said is that an effective full resto can very rarely be acheived without re-pop coming into the mix somewhere along the line. On the frames that have gone through restoration most of the decals are re-pop aren't they? Or have the guys aquired original decals from bitd on all the resto's?
Also quite simply if all the dc's in a sorry state get re-stored i believe there simply isn't enough of the original washers to go round. So like an effective f/f resto re-pops are essential for an effective calliper resto.
I didn't miss the point at all ::)

decals are different. re-popped stuff is just not the same. it's a collectors thing.
