Home made decals
I've seen a couple companies that product decal paper for a deskjet printer.
Most seem to have you print on the paper and then spray a clearcoat on it and then use like regular decals.
Any real experience about any product that really works well.
And.... where did you get the material
....................Building an LT-25 and SPECTRA glider.

Home made decals
For my Gee Bee I used clear decal paper made by Avery, bought at the local office shop. I used Photoshop to make the designs. Try to squeeze as much as you can onto a sheet as they run 11 bucks for 6 sheets. The results are fantastic if you have a decent printer. The only problem I found was the sheet was not as sticky as I wanted, so I used some clear Monokote over each decal that was big enough to stick to the covering surface as well.

Homemade decals
One alternative to decal paper that I've tried for homemade decals is using something called "Body Tattoo Paper". I know it sounds weird but it's actually a clear, extremely sticky and thin plastic that you end up with the graphic on the >>sticky
