Gents,

thanks for the ideas. I hadn't thought of painting over stencils but it would be a nice solution. I was considering black lettering out of a laser printer but after seeing a sample of canopy paint, it would be nice to use that colour!

The tricky part would be to produce the stencil. I wonder if I can get away with using an X-acto to cut it out from frisket. Will the paint bleed if just held down by hand pressure...? Mmm... probably.

David.
