Looks great I like the 6R for vintage liveries and 6C for the more modern ones.

Here is some of the stuff we have been working on, some already available, some will be in the next few days

This one is actually further along, the large Alpha Tauri logos will come as cut vinyl instead of printed due to their size

Nice but you cant clean them with body cleaner and they are not pre cut. RC Decals are cleanable and pre cut. from UK That's all I use now.You can go to his facebook page. The Alpha body my buddy made his on his printer. The also have plenty of Ferrari decals - I have them coming this week. I even had him make a set of J Alesi decals for my Ferrari.

Yes you shouldn’t use body cleaner or any aggressive solvents with our decals. Soap and water, glass cleaner and even small amounts of some motor sprays are ok to use to clean without damage. As far as the precut, we have the ability to do this, but choose not to for quality and scrap issues. The film we use is very soft and pliable to conform to surfaces, when printed it gets even softer. To try and cut every graphic on every sheet would double our production time and would more than likely see us scrapping a lot of material. At some point we hope to acquire a laminator and offer laminated sheets, that comes at the price of thickness, you essentially double the thickness of the decal and are able to read the edge of the decal. We pride ourselves on offering a high quality product that makes a convincing replica when applied. It does have its limitations, but we like to think the positives outweigh the negatives. 10 years and thousands of sheets shipped, and we are just getting started.

I would rather purchase your decals (USA).But I've has this discussion before when I erased my decals because I use Tuning Haus and Protoform cleaners to remove the tire marks on my bodies. Nothing I ever tried will remove 95% of the marks. I do this (clean my bodies) all day long during race day when needed to clean them. I've also gone to my local sigh guy and got you stuff laminated and it worked fine. I've gotten spoiled with not having to do that and they come pre cut from RC Decals. That's why we have choices but as I said I'd rather buy something from the USA first.

Love your decals Brad and did a number of F1's using them (including a number of Tamiya concourse winners at Regionals and Nats). Unfortunately I found the dark side right after the 2018 Tamiya Nats (nitro racing). With local tracks closing and the best nitro track in the US just 30 minutes away in sunny So Cal, I got sucked in. Now if you had an idea that would fit on a 1:8 nitro body...... ;-)

Brad's stuff is on point! Never been disappointed with his decals, they always make me look like a champ.
