After a 25 year absence and amazed at all the new covering materials, there must be a relatively simple way to make customized decals oneself using an inkjet printer and/or a color laserjet printer. I would be grateful knowing what works best and vendor names for vinyl, mylar or other substrates, fixative sprays and overlaminates. I would prefer to learn from experts rather than trying to reinvent the wheel by trying everything that is out there. Are there any good references to articles/texts that explain the differences among commercial processes used by Sig and others for printing on monokote, ultracote etc. Many thanks for any assitance.
Merry Christmas to all and a Happy New Year.

Hi theres a company called Bel INC. Miami Fl 305 593-0911 I have purchased Clear inkjet paper for decals. They have worked well for me. I haven't used them in a year or tow so i just don't remember the proceadure. But they are just like the ones with plastic model airplanes.he sells on ebay also. if you want the windo type clear that are much thicker you can buy the paper a staples.
