weezerboy Posted November 29, 2003 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2003 the thing is..you can buy blank tattoo sheets that you print onto..could you use these for decals? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devon Headen Posted November 29, 2003 Report Share Posted November 29, 2003 That'd be sorta like a slide on design wouldn't it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renablistic Posted November 29, 2003 Report Share Posted November 29, 2003 the thing is..you can buy blank tattoo sheets that you print onto..could you use these for decals? If you could that would be PERFECT for making your own custom headstock logos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weezerboy Posted November 29, 2003 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2003 or decals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
butnut Posted November 29, 2003 Report Share Posted November 29, 2003 Very interesting...my friend made a few decals for me using the plain decal sheet and his good printer. They look awesome, but do leave a slight ridge where you cut the film out. It is still visible after clearing with poly and a very faint haze of the decal film...no biggie, I think it looks kinda vintage. I have used NOS decals and the film dissappears completely, but those are rare and expensive if you can find the real deal...also very fragile. NOW, if you are saying that the TATOO which is transferring only the image...with NO outlines or cloudy film is visable, I'd go that way...here's a pic of the decal, the film can't be seen in certain angles, but flat on it's really noticable. I'll have to try that tatoo thing..I'll wear a Fender decal on my arm too... http://www.montypics.com/pic.php?url=/butn...05_0563_IMG.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weezerboy Posted November 29, 2003 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2003 i've found plenty of sites that sell the sheets and my first thought after looking at brians pic ^^^^ was mmm decals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
