Hey Mike, I been meaning to comment. Incredible Job. Mad Skills. Always liked the Yellow themed Yamaha. Reminds me of the old school Yamaha. I wish they stayed with the yellow. I believe they switched to Blue in 82 or right after Bc of Suzuki. My 1st Bike was a 74 GT 80 Competition Yellow. Loved that Bike. I am looking for one to restore. Great job on the Bike. The engine casings would look wicked powder Coated in Black Chrome. Talk to you soon Bud! Scott

@OperatorASF5 жыл бұрын
The glue on the edges is due to the windex loosening the glue. When you lay the decal over the windex it loosens the glue and when you peel it or move it the glue stays adhered and moves around with the decal. MOST reputable decal companies will strictly suggest not to use any decal adhesive or not to use the wet lay technique.
@MichaelSabo5 жыл бұрын
That's interesting. These graphics and others I've done have a bit of sticker residue that hangs over the edge ever without being wet. I didn't know most companies don't recommend against using wet layout; thanks for the info man!
