i used an elimination paper, like a missive roll of tape with more consistancy. Then i spray painted the black down onto it then handpainted the cannondale onto it. figured i would do that instead of painting it onto the frame that way if i didnt like i could take it off.

oya big thanks to thebugs for getting me pictures of the decals, help alot thank you.

Very nice painting, just make sure you clearcoat the frame, and if not the frame, a little bit over the lettering and just onto the black. It will def prolong the life of that sick paintjob. 8-)

oya forgot to mention that i clear coated the sticker before i put it on, somethin i learned to do from previous experiences :lol: probaly not going to clear coat the frame with it on just incase if i want to take it off and make new ones.

Also, about the paper you used (or the tape stuff I guess) do you have any links to info on it or where I might be able to find some? Elimination paper didnt get anything on google. This could definetly be useful for my next painting project....
