The decals are Testors water slide. Not cheap at $10 for 6 sheets. (still cheaper than what I paid for the Bianchi Decals ($30 for the set of 5). I thought about doing a seperate thread on making and applying your own decals. I think the results are equal to store bought. Funny thing is the biggest problem I had was trying to find high res. logos to use for decals. You can't see it from the pics but there is a campy logo on the rear seat stays. If you study that decal closely you would be able to see the pixels/squares. Probably wouldn't know it if it wasn't pointed out. As for the World Cup stripes, I made those in a design program, so they came out perfect. The lettering of "campione d'italia" is also a regular font so no problems with that. I also made some small Look logos that are colored and will go on my pedals when finished.

Ok, as for the color it is "Rustoleum Painters Touch satin Seaside Green". This is Rustoleums crappier brand of paints. I had a few runs here and there that needed to be touch up. It is definitely thinner than their regular paint. It should be noted that I took my time with painting. One day to completely strip, sand and wipe with acetone and let dry. One day to primer and let dry, one day for green and let dry, one day for the black graphics and let dry, and finally one day for the clear, let dry and clear coat a final time. I looked into powder coating, but it wouldn't have worked for the paint scheme I wanted. I thought about professional paint job but didn't want to invest in that. Although it is rattle can, I feel like with the preparation I did, it is going to last. The clear coating really makes the difference. I did a scratch test on the head tube of the fork and was satisfied.

Mock up will start tonight. Picked up new tires today and will post some more pics Monday!
