I may have one left over in the shed, if it’s the one you want let me know and you can have it. David Decatron made them some time age.

I made some a couple of years ago and offered them on the forum in strips of four.

I still have four strips left, as depicted below.

If anyone would like a strip, they're £2.00 inc post.

As anyone will know who has tried, applying waterslide transfers - ('decals' as they're known outside the UK) - is an acquired skill. You must not slide the transfer off the backing paper as it will wrinkle up. You must place the transfer in position still on the backing paper and gently slide the backing paper from beneath the transfer, while smoothing the transfer onto the cabinet. It helps in adjusting the transfer to get it exactly right, to apply a little soapy water to the cabinet.

They adhere really well once dry and are quite durable.

Hope that helps.

Hi Ken, yes I do have two transfers which are surplus to my requirements which you can have. Just pm me.
These were originally obtained from David so you may prefer to buy a set from David it’s up to you.
