I've been working on some bodies to go on slot car chassis and that got me thinking about decals. The cars are intended to resemble some classic NASCARs, but not be true replicas of them. They will be NASCAR look-a-likes racing on a 'dirt' oval.
A few years ago I traded a Scalextric Camaro body for several sheets of Artin decals, and the numbers have come in handy for dirt track cars. I've also printed my own decals on shipping labels and cut them out to put on cars. I've only printed my own water slide decals once and am more comfortable with stick on decals.
Anyone make their own peel-n-stick decals using blank stock other than labels? Where did you get the stock to print on? Something made of thin plastic with a white base color would be ideal.
Also, is there a way to remove water slide decals without striping the whole body? I'm talking about self applied decals when no clear coat has been applied to the body afterwards. If you put on some water slide decals and then change your mind after they dry, what recourse is there?
Thanks.
