Anybody know who sells new VIN number tags. I know I have seen them at swap meets but dont remember who sold them. thanks
As far as I know of..nobody sells them. Trim Tags inc will make trim tags but NOT VIN tags. This is a very touchy area when you go messing with VIN tags and numbers. You can suffer the wrath of the law if caught.
I've tried the press-n-peel (PNP) method of laser printing, and then ironing the PNP to the br***, and then chucking it into some Ferric Chloride for about an hour. It takes forever to get a good quality transfer of PNP to the br***. I just did about 3 tries and still haven't got the PNP to stick correctly. I also tried putting photo sensitizer on the br***, and exposing it to a positive image, and after about 2 try's I got tired of that. So tomorrow I'm going to use a silk screen. Put the photo emulsion on the screen, expose it, wash out the expsed areas, and then silk screen the br*** with ink, and throw it in the Ferric Chloride for an hour. Here's the best I made so far: The only advantage of etching, is it gives it a neat 3-D look. For instance I just sprayed it with a can of flat black, let it dry, and then sanded so just the high br*** came through. Maybe I'll have something for next months tech week...
