Do you buy old decals/parts? Yes if it is a usable piece that we can use. We will buy decals cut off old fenders (do not need the entire fender) and rusted gas tanks , please contact us if you think you have something we may be interested in before you throw it out,
Are the decals SUPER THICK? No, We try to keep them close to orginals thickness. We can use a thicker lamiate for a race type condition.
Thicker decals stick better! No they are not, the thickness is in the clear laminate applied to the decal material, the adhesive on the decal material (viny) is what determines the adhesive properties, We can make a higher tack adhesive decal with a thin laminate, great for tough to adhere material like Porta Potties, Kayaks and some powder coated metals. The thickness is for abrasion wear.
Plastic Gas Tanks??? No, they will bubble, PERIOD! Why? the gas fumes work their way into the plastic and break down the adhesive on the back of the decal causing it to bubble, vent holes help, but you will still get bubbling and the older the tank the worse it is.
Install? We Recommend cleaning surface well and then cleaning again with Isopropyl Alcohol. Also recommend a wet install of a couple drops of dish soap in a bottle of water. This will not harm the adhesive and allow you to work out bubbles.
Can I use soapy water to intall? Yes, it makes it easier, examples on the internet under "Wet Method"
If there a "Kit" Available? If there is not one listed under that model, then there is not one available.
