Have you printed vinyl for the graphics?
Thank you!
I almost started over with a new patch. Its still noticable, and I felt like I could have made it invisible had I been more careful and patient.
I had hell trying to get the graphics to look decent.
I tried t shirt transfers, clear waterslide decal paper, white waterslide decal paper, photo paper... Each had it's own problem. The clear waterslide decal was translucent even thru the inked portions, so when placed on the gray paint, they all discolored or washed out to a dark tint. This actually helped the bigfoot silhouette look darker, so I used it. The orange text looked terrible on the waterslide, so I printed it on the t shirt transfer paper with a black highlight, straight from microsoft word. It doesn't lay nearly as flat as the waterslide, but the color looks much better.
I have not tried to print on vinyl and don't know if I can with my printer. Unfortunately, all I have to work with at the moment is my inkjet. Its a good quality printer but doesn't work so well for this application. Any advice in the graphics department is very appreciated.
