Castrol stickers wanted

**homer** · 25th April 2008, 20:20

hi all
does anyone have about 2 - 4 castrol stickers
small enough to put the swingarm of a bike , so not to big but visable

I am thinking about 20mm in the depth and about 150mm in the length or similar
i dont want them to cover the whole swingarm , just near the back of it and about a third of the way forward .

PM me if you do have and want to sell

Fwiw if you want em bad enough its easy to get them made to your own dimensions mate.

oh can i just do that
get the pic of it
and then they do the colour and stuff

Thats probably what 98tls ment

yeah they cut a new layer for each colour. more layers = more complexity = more cost.

Also, if you want to attach it yourself, they will assemble the layers on some backing so you can just take it home and slap it on. In practice, this is a lot easier said than done.

It might be easier (and it wont have wrinkles in it) to figure out exactly how you would like your bike to look, and take it in there and get them to do the whole thing. You will be impressed with the results.

I'll get shot for this by my fellow signwriters but... go to the website http://www.brandsoftheworld.com
type in castrol and you'll find a ton of files already made up in the vector format we signwriters use to cut vinyl. find the one you want and save it to a flash card in either .ai format, .eps or .cdr and take that to your nearest signwriter. Saves you the cost of vectorising the logo (as its already done on that site) and all they have to do is size and cut.
Changes a logo from taking an hour plus to under 5 mins.
