My 37-61 is finished
#9

Good luck, Ed. Now that it is done, I think I might just do a mask and faux paint instead next time using fine striping tape and masking tape, and take my time. The decals look OK, better than what it did, but they are not perfect. On a cabinet like mine, they come as 2 pieces, which have to meet in the middle, and getting them to meet and stay just right on that middle speaker rib is a real B17<H. Mine has a few tiny wrinkles there that I really could not manage to eliminate and keep everything together properly.It ends up one of those jobs where you wish you had about six hands at once to do it right, LOL, although that would probably just make it three times worse.
