Where do I get one of these decals?

Hey folks

See attached pic, where it says 'Tornado' I am looking to have something similar with 'Sunday Best' on it but cant for the life of me find anywhere that does such transfers. Seen a few pics on here of people who have them. Just want something durable that will stick to the sponson.

All help appreciated as always.

Cheers,

Si

It's not a transfer, it's a cut out hypalon/ PVC etc patch. Any boat or tube manufacturer should be able to supply one to your spec.

Chiorino who are suppliers of the PU fabric offer them to trade customers but I don't know if they supply to the public. The ones they supply are made from two colours of PU and heat welded together.

May be worth giving them a call Contact | Chiorino UK.

They may direct you to one of their customers if they can't supply direct

If you are not too bothered about using PU then anyone who retubes in hypalon can probably help you

Linked to this - anyone know good place to get sticker with boat info on - i.e. call sign, SSR no, etc etc. I've had to blank off an area roughly 20cm wide by 10cm high on console after removing dead kit, and want to stick info on there...
So, after someone who can give sizes and relevant info to, who can supply decent sticker which won't fade.

any local sign shop will do you a cut vinyl lettered sign in any shape size & font you like for next to nowt. Sticks like buggery & doesn't fade. My ssr number has been on for 5 years & looks like new.

Instead of a sticker - go to a sign maker and ask for a quote for a traffolyte panel. They can add boat name, MMSI number, etc.

I'd be another vote for a "traffolyte" panel - it's hard! I use Sign o Times in Bude - decent lads despite being Cornish
They use acrylic for external signs. They could do you a few extra labels for kit etc if you go that route.
