hi guys next task to fit my tank decals ,has anyone done this and is it a big ask for me to try myself pls ,thanking you already lol cheers frank .

I think I sent to many grrrrrrr

Just make sure the tank surface is wet so the decal can slide - if it's a transfer.
If it's sticky, you can try with water underneath the decal and slide it into place, but one it's pressed down, that's it!
Use a gentle soft sponge to press it flat and remove the water.
A professional may come up with better ideas, of course - Canaletto painted mine on.
Are you going to laquer over the decals?

Cheers

Kev your very correct, I dont like the 550b decal ,I no it's against the purest on here ,but just the silver and blue lines are very boring, to be fair I like the look of the earlier decals kev ..
Cheers frank

[canaletto5]

I that case Frank I dont think you need to cut any away, there is very little of it under the badge

oh really kev ,it looks like it just goes under the
k and the I of suzuki ,I'm just hoping I dont mess it up by creasing that part of the decal kev . Many thanks
Frank .
