My son and I are restoring/restifying an Anthony Jet boat.
The original stickers on both sides of the boat are in pretty good shape, and I would like to have some new ones made for the trailer, etc. at some point towards the end of the build.
The stickers are, believe it or not, black lettering in a script over what appears to be old-school rainbow tape. I don't know how else to describe it, but that is what they look like.
Does anyone know of a decal source that has access to that kind of stuff?
I can take pics, even trace the sticker out and sent that tracing in, but I am afraid the rainbow tape deal is gonna be the killer.
For you youngsters, rainbow tape was a decal that sorta looks like an engine turned applique that was really popular in the 70's. Kinda like the dash on the Smokey and the Bandit Trans Am..

A quick search showed some similar type sign vinyl is available, even in fairly small quantities on Ebay if you can't find a graphics guy that has some in stock.

I have a friend who is a full time graphics professional, I will point him at this thread.

I've done this type of graphics for 20 years as obnoxious says. If you can send a picture I may be able to help you.
