Getting Decals Made

[nh8260]

I've heard there are companies out there that will make decals from photos you send them, I have checked around here and haven't found one so far. Has anyone used a company or business that does this and has good quality decals?? I would like to get some made for older implements, the replacements you get now are not quite the same.

I've been able to get anything I have clear pictures of from a local office supply, print and sign shop. A couple times they resized or changed colors for me. Cost is waaaaay cheaper than anything online selling decals.

That is what sign shops do. You can call them signs or decals your choice, but they are made the same way from sheet vinyl.

Everything is all stickers now. Not a true water slip decalcomania.

Not everything. I have a quote from last May for waterslide decals from these people, made to my artwork (provided in CDR format):

STS Decals

Terry Borchers

There are other places as well, but many are limited to a given size.

And you might be surprised what I can't do.

No way I could paint anything freehand and it not look like a kindergartener’s coloring book.

A son in law owns and operates a sign shop and also prints, makes and applies decals for company work trucks. Look on the web for a sign shop near you.

My SIL used to hand letter and paint designs. Today no-one wants to pay the hourly rate, so request decals.

The place mentioned above quoted me $45 for a sheet of waterslide decal prints, regardless of how many of what is printed on the sheet. I needed three-color decals to for restoration of some vintage speakers:
