JeroenS Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 There you go! I have that same problem myself sometimes, when I just keep putting things off. A good mental kick in the behind usually gets me going and then I find the job done in no time... That first step is always the hardest 😉 You could just get a marker and write a "D" of course... much easier then painting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiny Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 Do you still have the 'D' raised or did you scrape that off too? Another option in addition to those I mentioned on the previous page and other suggestions would be to paint the whole thing white, then get an old eraser, paint that black and stamp onto the 'D' part - should pick up the raised bits and give you a reasonable definition. Just make sure you don't put too much paint on the rubber, you want a thin layer rather than anything too thick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I did manage to print a rather nice replacement decal which I just made from scratch, as I realised it was just a D in a circle. It looks to be the right size, so I now have options with that 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoolioPaulio Posted May 28, 2020 Author Share Posted May 28, 2020 I'm calling this one done, finally. Its not my best, but certainly not my worst, and to say what I had to work with I'm very happy. I'll try and get some RFI pics on my new background tomorrow. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cream colour looks excellent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
