Transam Decals - Who can put them on

(1/4) > >>

1977 Transam:
Hi.

I've been searching for a few months now for someone who can do an extremely good paint job on my 1977 Transam.

I'm more stressed though about if the spray painter knows the correct way to apply the decals.

I've heard too many stories about decals being applied incorrectly.

Does anyone know of someone who would be capable of this please?

I'm especially interested if they've done anyone elses transams.

Thankyou.

I've done three sets of 2nd gen decals, all turned out OK.





This is one of the moderator's cars...Joe74ta.

Give me a call if you want to talk about how its done etc...its not too hard, just takes some attention to detail. 0417680623 Leigh.
Do you have the decal set yet? If so, are they the papaer backed ones, or the plastic backed ones?

LeighP:
PS...I'm just getting my car painted...hope its going in this Friday.

I settled on Wreck-a-Mended Smash repairs in Ingleburn. They do a lot of classic US/Aussie cars and have been around a while. Guys name to talk to is Alan.

1977 Transam:
I haven't got the decals yet.  Will be buying them from Dave at Pontiworld.

I want to find someone who can paint the car, apply the decals and clear coat straight afterwards.

Not sure if a spray painter will be comfortable doing it.  

It would be great if I could chat to you closer to the time Leigh to get an idea of how hard it is to apply them.  

joe74ta:
I strongly advise that you do not clear cote over the Decal as they will crack the clearcote around the decal the first hot day. Phoenix graphix even recommend against waxing the Decal.
