Decal opinion needed.
Redoing a Miyata 710. I got it back from the powder coaters the other day and I had planned on redecalling (even a word?) the frame but with a more modern look....I guess.
It's red frame and I was thinking I would panel the decal by using two decals....one being a solid white decal with thin parallel stripes on either end and then apply the 'MIYATA" onto it.
Question is this....after reading another post about a Nashbar touring frame and how he "paneled" the decal by using paint and how I planned on using an actual decal.....well, I have to wonder if my idea isn't a good one....so I ask, what would you do? put a decal panel as a base with another decal over it for the name or paint the base color of the panel and then apply the name?
Attached is a rough idea of what I am after....Miyata on the DT and the model "Seven 10" on the TT up by the head tube.
