Pomona, Calif.LD stopped using the Pomona, Calif decal 20+ years ago, I doubt if Todd has any available but you can ask.With a good photo of what you want, custom-made decals are available. It would be easier to get a high-quality "Montclair" photo. Just about anything can be printed on vinyl.Larry

Re: Faux front window paint Reply #30 – August 12, 2023, 01:00:05 pm This is a picture of half of my front decal. I call it the 'Puffy' letter style. Older ones had a blocky tilted left or right each letter alternating style. I removed the decal when I had the scaffolding up there. Never got around to ordering a new decal. I can still see the outline on the fiberglass that was protected from wear. There was a 1" rock hit in the 'D'. The decal was really worn out. RonB

Re: Faux front window paint Reply #33 – April 24, 2024, 12:29:44 am Hello Lazy Daze Painters, The 94’ Daze definitely needs attention on the two front black faux windows.. Curious if anyone has used a marine paint for fiberglass. Total Boat - Wet Edge? I am thinking of rolling on the primer and paint. Thoughts

Re: Faux front window paint Reply #35 – April 24, 2024, 03:27:28 pm Yes, lots of painters tape! Use black primer also. I used spray paint, much harder, especially since it was windy just a little breeze. I'm not sure if a roller would leave evidence. The hard part was getting up to the 'windows' to work on them. I covered the hood with a shipping blanket in case I dropped something heavy enough to dent the hood. RonB

Curious if anyone has used a marine paint for fiberglass. Total Boat - Wet Edge? I am thinking of rolling on the primer and paint. ThoughtsI used Interlux Brightside marine paint. Sanded first. Then applied Interlux Pre kote primer before the Brightside black paint. Sanded every time and used two coats of both primer and black paint. Used roll and tip method. Plenty of YouTube videos to show how. All waterproof and worked great. Got it all from Amazon 4 Likes
