White Decal Printing

[krow113]

Something that contributed to the cessation of activity on A Gotha was these white printed decals.

As is just visible there is a slight double image and I cant reconcile myself to use them. They were done for free by a friend , not too worried about offending anyone as they are quite detailed and may have stretched the printers capacity for tiny detail.

Not sure of the limits of white decal printing either.

They look proper - an amalgamation of several reference pics - and they are so close to being useable , but....

 

My question is : Does anyone know of a company that can print the white ink for decals?

I did searchs and found three suppliers.

I'll wait to hear back from them.

Anyones experience with a supplier would be appreciated.

Thank you.

I haven't tried them, but am awaiting a set of custom decals from this supplier. This chap is back to producing custom decals, but I am looking at late February due to his lead time. Worth a try maybe? White is expensive, but I am going with it.

One supplier has informed me the lettering may be too small for the ALPS printer to deal with.

I 'm going over the file today and will send it to one of the other suppliers and see what happens.

File sorted and accepted by a printer.

I went with this printer simply because they are the  'cheapest'.

$48.00 CAD for a 5" x 8" white printed decal sheet.

More than 1/2 the price is shipping.
