Kate;
There is a water slide decal material that I have run across called
Lazertran, which can be used to produce a decal out of any image that your
printer can print. They also have a similar product that you can use to make
iron on type decals with a colour photo copier which may be more durable.
The only drawback is, for myself in particular, is that neither machine will
reproduce the gold or silver metalic portions of decals so I will need to
investigate how this could be done short of screen printing.
I have also run across decals that are made for ceramic items that can be
baked in a kiln. I would love to find out how to make those as they would be
immune to engine heat.
Best Regards

Subject: IML: making decals on a printer???
Some time ago, there was discussion of air cleaner trim and decals - I think
it was for 64-66?. Someone made mention of printing decals on some sort of
special film stocl on their home printer.
If this is true, would love to know more details. I am also a collector of
antique sewing machines, and there has been considerable discussion on
restoration and how to replicate the ornate decals for them.
Any leads would be more than welcome! Thanks in advance
