Hey guys, know i've seen a lot of posts on custom decals, but i was wondering if i could get some questions answered besides where to get them. Any suggestions on where to get them however are needed and would be appreciated! i have used gold decals in the past and they turn out good and seem to be the #1 option when going to order decals. I was wondering however if anybody has somebody that get them white decals. Also i was wondering what font sizes and fonts seem to work out for different sized rods. Any suggestions regarding these decals would be greatly appreciated!! thanks!

Hi Aaron,
Go to decal Connection on the left. They can build you just about anything you need in the way of fonts, size, and/or colors. They are a great company to deal with, and the product is great.

Decal Connection!!!!! I use silver or gold metallic, depending on the color scheme of the rod. As far as font/size goes, it's strictly a personal decision. Print out your inscription in a couple different fonts/sizes and hold them against the rod and see what you like

Aaron,
Definitely go with Jimi at Decal Connection. He is the easiest person to work with and his decals are awesome. I use the best water transfer decal paper and have my decals in gold, black and white. I think the gold looks the best and I use that color on most of my rods but there are times when the white or black go better with the rod color scheme. Highly recommended.

Heck, try gold metallic with a black outline. Hooks up to about any background except black. Or silver metallic with the black outline. Don't limit yourself to one color. Give Jimi a holler and he can do anything you'd like.

Aaron, if Decal Connection can't help you with the white decals, send me an email and I might be able to get you some.
Just click on my name next to Posted by: above and it will show you my email address.

Larry
