3d Embossed Saxo Badges...

  1. #1
    Hi All, Quite a while ago i was a Donny car show and there was a stand selling 3d embossed stickers for cars (the demo they had was a Saxo) basically they were exact replicas of the 'Citroen' & 'Saxo' badges on the the back of your car, but you could buy them to match the colour of your car the end result was that it made it look like the words 'Citroen' & 'Saxo' had been embossed in the actual boot panel its self.

    I have since bought a new saxo which is a different colour to the 3d sticker i have, just wondered if anybody could remember the company name or their web address, can't seem to find it searching google or ebay.

    Hope you can help

    Cheers

    get a hairdryer and a credit card. heat the glue behind the badges them work them off with the card.

    They are just held on with double sided sticky pads... there are two plastic pins just to ensure they are aligned straight...

    Mine we loose and simply peeled off... but you may need to warm them up a little to make it easier...

    Then just sand them with 1200 grit wet dry paper to key the surface..
    2 layers of plastic primer, fine sanding with 1200 grit wet dry in between coats to ensure it's uber smooth... then leave it for 24hours..
    Then spray 2/3 coats of the colour you want... fine sanding in between coats to ensure it's smooth and doesn't look like the skin of an orange... then leave it for 24hours... then apply 2 coats of laquer... if your car has metallic paint make sure you used CLEAR laquer... then leave for 24hours... and stick them back on your car

    Yeah. Takes twenty mins but your fingers are killing afterwards! Looks good but comes at a price
