swede70 Posted March 13 Posted March 13 (edited) Greetings, For a fast web search and equally fast search across the MCMF board I'd hoped to find a lead or leads - alas, I haven't. I'm on the hunt for some source of a waterslide decal affording was is termed an 'engine turned' surface finish whereby oil is applied to an aluminum surface in combination with a wire brush spun by drill. The resulting pattern which appears as a series of carefully controlled overlapping swirled marks is something usually seen on much older Indianapolis racers, and in a decorative sense on mid-1970's Pontiac Firebird Trans Am instrument panels which most will remember or recall. Attached below would be some material I applied to a 1:18th SCCA Trans-Am Challenger that proved very nice indeed - albeit my supplies (gifted years ago by someone quite skilled at coming up with material appearing spot-on) are running low. Might anyone provide guidance or have lead to something similar? Kind thanks for your review of this query... Mike K./Swede70 Edited March 13 by swede70
ShawnS Posted March 13 Posted March 13 Hi Mike. It's not waterslide but adhesive. https://www.bnamodelworld.com.au/model-cars-motorcycles-parts-decals-hasegawa-models-ha-71936 Just might suit your needs. Cheers ShawnS 1
RancheroSteve Posted March 13 Posted March 13 Not a decal exactly, but here's a thread here that might be helpful in case you haven't seen it: 1
Fantom Posted March 13 Posted March 13 STS decals had engine turned decal sheets in gold and silver. I used them on this dashboard. 3
