Title: stickers & graphics
Post by: Jamroll on December 18, 2008, 08:21 PM
Gents,
iI would appear that the way to go in relation to Stickers & Graphics is to get in contact with Del.
Del your reputation on the site proceeds you. :4_17_5:
Does Del have a stand alone web site so i can see some more incredable work and get some ideas for colours etc?
This has probably been asked a thousand times already but thx anyway! :daumenhoch:

I do the lot Alex, I've replied to the pm, my website is still under construction and so is the shop (has been for over a year.... there's just so many decals I have that I dont have the time to catalogue and photograph them all) 
I could do with a gallery but I'd need to collect pics of everyone I've supplied decals for... there was a post on here a long time ago with some of my work.. do a search for my name and you may find it

How do you do you decals Del:

As I've not seen any close up

Are they:
-layered Vinyls?
-Hot foil printed?
-Solvent based?

Or a mixture of all

Cheers
Dan

Mixture of all, but mainly thermal and hardly ever solvent

If you want the best stickers, repro or custom, Del is your man.

I had del make these up for my Rebel, and considering they were only based on scans and photos they literally came out nicer than the real thing.

I say that cos the Rebel cruiser I bought came with repros based on the actual originals taken off the bike prior to repowdering, and they are accurate but the colours just arent anywhere near as vibrant.  They honestly dont look as nice.

I would ask anyone to take the Pesi challenge (dels compared to the 'other' repros) and I guarentee everyone would pick dels.

Del

are you able to do reflective stickers? My ones had 'prism' (I think it was called) reflective background underneath the 'BMX' and PIRANHA lettering. (Kind of like holographic). Now they're all faded to buggery. Before I pull them off to restore my bike...

Anyway you could reproduce something like that?
