...here is one I just finished up, as a pandemic project.




A couple of things:

Getting the decals/stickers straight and centered in proper position is greatly facilitated by first inking off a set of center lines (in a cross pattern, one horizontal and one vertical) on the masking tape on the sticker's top surface. (Which is now present on most of the ones I have ordered lately.) You then apply masking tape around the tube you want to put the sticker on at each end of the decal position (use the decal to measure). Then use a ruler to ink the lines straight across onto the two pieces of masking tape at the place you want the decal centered. Line up the lines on your sticker and your masking tape as you apply, using the wet method with a couple of drops of Dawn in water (in a spray bottle).

All of this works much better, and your stickers are much better protected, if you do a final coat of Spraymax 2K Clear Glamour over everything after you have the decals applied, You need to mask off any chrome, but I don't see any on your frame.

If your friend is willing, he can do a clear final coat of some kind of epoxy hardened paint on your frame. Anyway, that's what I do on everything now. When properly hardened and cured, this clear coat is remarkably durable, and ought to help you with any issues you might have previously experienced with frame band clamps.
