Vinyl stickers

[almost40]

Anyone try anything like this to make stripes or change color in small area??

How did it work out??? Does the viynl follow the contours of the farings without gathering in those areas?

I did most of the pink on my bike and its ok, my hubby did one and it looks great!(helps to be a perfectionist) Make sure you fit it perfectly because the vinyl does not allow pulling up on it at all, I tried that when I saw a bubble start to form. You can check out my avatar or there are more pics in my stuff album, if you want close ups let me know.

I tried this in my front fender but its so hard do model.
In flat areas are fine. But a lot of curves like front fender and seat fairings needs a pro.

You just need a blade to cut, a strong hairdryer to heat the vinyl and then curve it, a rubber scoop to remove the air bubbles and a sprinkler with water a few soap to wet the vinyl backside and the bike after apply.

Look some works I made:


That's my fiancee bike. I made all the vinyls.


My "ex-bike". Gas tank are stock but I made the carbon look apply.


My car. That's a type of curves are hard to do.


My bike. Look the front fender. I've tried to do the entire front fender but the vinyl rip out. So I did just that little piece. I want to try again and do the rear fairing too. When I'm more zen.
