Is there any such thing: Water slide decal sheet of foil metallics, for cutting to shape/size needed? _________________ Bill Jobson is my real name. |

Alps printers can do Metallic I use them all the time with my decals if its called for, and alps 5000 series printed decals can print Chrome and Gold Foil. As for a straight decal sheet that you cut the only thing I have ever seen in Solid Foils and I don't know if its still available is Bare Metal used to do a Gold and Copper foil as for Metallic's I have never seen anything. There may be something but I am unaware of it perhaps someone here knows of something and will let us know about it. |

Cut Bare Metal Foil to shape. Spray with clear color (like yellow clear for gold), Print border decals (like drop shadow) on clear decal film and apply over top. _________________ "Dude, it's not Camelot... it's only a model." "Details man, I need details!!" |

Depending on how crazy the design you're looking at, Alcad II paint through an airbrush may be a better solution. At some point I'll get the courage to make Waltrips chrome #17 and this is the way I'm going to go rather than using bare metal foil. |
