Here's one that knocked our socks off ... a custom diecut job on clear stock that we recently printed for Hall's Speed Shop of Wichita, Kansas. This sweet little sticker looks like it was lifted right off a classic hot rod from the 1950s.
The combination of white, red and black ink on clear backing delivers an authentic retro look of a water decal with none of the hassle.
Slapping a sticker on your 32 Ford hiboy's windshield wasn't a peel and stick affair back in the day. You had to carefully soak the decal paper in water and slide the image off onto the glass. Many decals were torn and pompadours pulled out in the process.
Flash forward to 2013. While you can still get custom water decals printed today, they can still be a hassle to apply. That's why most folks opt for the ease of the peel-offs.
