We've had a few discussions about this in the past, but I want to know if anyone has any experience of using stickers that are sprayed ?

I'm getting some sponsership form a site I've helped to set up and the logo we want is this:

  http://www.web.co.uk">

Now one provider in the UK (Grapefruit Graphics) say they can do it by spraying the graphic onto clear vinyl.  Now I've never used this before, all my previous graphics have been laser cut vinyl.  Anyone got any ideas or pointers

Cheers

Simon

Im guessing that if it is sprayed it might fade slightly or get attacked my mucky water but I'm only guessing really. You should ask if it is as long lasting as normal stickers!

The kite on my 4tonner has a sprayed logo on....still looks ok @ the moment but to be honest it will start peeling quite soon I'd of thought......it won't last that much longer!

I also have the same(but smaller!) logo on my mainsail....but it's a sticker which does look better....wouldn't work on a kite tho......
