View Full Version : !!!!! williams stickers !!!!! please read
just testing the water. i have acquired a full set of williams stickers from mat brown and im in the process of getting them replicated for a perfect match! (size colour etc) would there be many people here interested in the sets? just want to see how many people would be interested! im sure we can make some outline only ones for the williams 1's but im after a number "2" both sizes(arch and tailgate) for replication... will post some prices asap...... i will aslo post some pictures after ive received and viewed the samples for myself....
I would be but it depends on price and quality.

This was how far we got the last time we tried to get some replicas made up. The blue infill was quite tough to get right.
Would deffinately be up for some. Would you get different infills for the Wiliams 2 and Williams 3 stickers (just read they are different). I have some rubbings that I took which I sent over to decal box if they may help plus quite a few pics.
Having looked at some pantone swatches reckon 2767u for the Blue inlay is quite a good match

right cheers for the replies people! give me a week or so(the originals were sent today). jarb that inlay above, is that the blue infill for the williams 2??? also do you have a number 2 spare to use? any help or rubbing pics etc greatly appreciated!
Unfortunately no spares I think its a pretty good match for the blue infil for the williams 2 stickers where can I send images off to? As have a few pantone swatches rubbings etc in various digital formats.

I'd be up for a set of 3 stickers if any are made up.
Christ with my parts backup plan I want 3 sets!
ok guys thanks for the interest... my graphics man has received the stickers and i will hear in due course... will keep everyone updated....
i'd defo be interested... dam you rusty arches! :(
Hows the stickers going has the designer made any progress?
just got back from glastonbury. so it will take me a few days to catch up on things. had an e mail and i will be replying to it today :D
samples are in the post to me as we speak
Thats great look foward to hearing your opinions on them and any pictures you put up
right i have received the sample today! quiet impressed with it... but the only issue is the gold... the gold seems very hard to get a perfect match... the original decal in the pic below is the "3" that is sitting on its own at the top... the other 2 decals are the replicas.. thoughts please

the new three looks a different shape
on the outside gold shape????
looks smaller in size by a tad all round thats why
sorry!!! lol forgot to add. the replicated decals are the tailgate! and the solitary "3" is the arch decal! :oops:

Yeah.
Mat.
not a bad effort though mate
Will they be able to get a better match on the gold?
im in contact regarding the colour match on the gold, hoping to tweak it a bit! whoever gave me the pantone code for the gold on here is the code that was used for the gold on the replica decal... also the cut out on the 3 is rough as its a sample, the proper sets will have the 3 or the 2 cut out perfectly...
i will be bringing the sample to FCS for people to view....
cheers zollo for the number "2" i can confirm that the blue infill on both the williams 2's and 3's are exactly the same!! and the same with the gold outline too..
If your quick with the williams 2 stickers I'll put them on my freshly resprayed car next month when its done and run with them for a while - take lots of pics get peoples opinions etc...
still in discussions over the gold outline mate! it seems to be a right proper headache!!!!! :roll:

In the other sticker thread they had a very close match of the gold but not the blue?
May be worth finding out what was used on those stickers.
Is there any more progress on getting the Gold matched exactly?

A hair dryer or hot air paint stripper should work, obviously dont get too hot or the paint will bubble, just hot enough to unstick the adhesive, peel them off then clean up any residue of glue left behind, with what though im not sure tbh
Any word on these yet? I need a set of Williams 2 badges!
ive spoken to my man about these and im awaitng him getting back to me(as hes busy) will mail him again in the next few weeks

Use meths, just have to re-wax the paintwork where you cleaned it

Have you mentioned theres some easy £££ to be made from us?

I know of a company that shouldn't have any problems doing them, not sure how much they would want tho, we use them at work.
Creative graphics international.

Also not sure if there would be a copyright issue.

i think that would be a major stumbling block
i have a full set of original decals and numbers if anyone else would like to try i would happily loan them out.
Don't see why its so hard to get a sticker made tbh. Why is it so difficult?

It's not hard to get a sticker made, but it's getting it exactly right!
Mat.
theres at least 4 different users on e bay selling williams sticker copies. ive mailed them all to see if they might be able to help with this! will let people know what happens.
The ones I have on the car now are the right font and a decent gold match they're just totally the wrong size
I'm after a set of Willy 1 stickers, if anyone has a good contact for a good colour/size match :)
right ive had replies from 3 of the 4 people i mailed and all 3 are willing to help. so will keep people posted on this
Cheers mate, let us know a.s.a.p
Dan
slightly brighter gold - these are a tad too dark the more I look at them on the car
