Paint Help!!!!
 
Guys, need help again (big surprise)...

Anyway, As my project moves along it is time to start thinking paint and graphics. I intend to do a custom scheme in Red Bull colors. Putting down the basic paint is no problem, it is the Red Bull logo's that trouble me. I am looking for suggestions on how to accomplish this.

Also, I need placard markings and such, custom pilot names for the canopy, things like that.

Resources? Ideas?

Thanks!

Why don't you call Jerry Caudle at ProMark Graphics, and have him make some paint masks for you?

He can also make them in epoxy ink dry transfers.
Look through his on-line catalog for the other markings you need.
Jerry does loads of custom work, and his quality is top notch.

I have had excellent results from Aeroloft. This plus many more.

check with your local sign shop, they cut vinyl letters and some of them have clear vinyl and a color printer/plotter that prints in color as well as cuts the excess unprinted areas out. i paid 35 bucks for two large nose arts for a P-51 and all the lettering and art work on my TamJet A-4 w/ the Roadrunners scheme. they are very durable but aren't completely fuel proof so it's best to clear coat them prior to application or under a full clear coat.

I have a similar setup but in the 24" model. It is great and I used it for paint masks several times. If you have a picture of the artwork or the files I can cut them for you no problem.
