You can get stencils in any size. It is time consuming though. Mine was simple and I had my striper hand letter them and cleared over. After painting 20yrs plus I still don't reccomend clearing over vinyl.

Talk to Joe (Mild Thunder). He redid his dash and used vinyl decals that I made for him! Not sure if he cleared over the decals but it came out real good!

An alternative would be to wrap the whole dash panel with high performance vinyl that has all the labels integrated into the design. This is the design I am working on for my scarab so it matches the vinyl wrap I did on the boat this past summer!
Thanks
Jim

Hey guys. 502ss did make my dash labels. I did not clear over them. Reason being, after I installed them, I felt they looked just fine. Didn't wanna mess it up somehow and have to redo the thing all over again. All summer they have held up great. Only problem I ran into is the way my indicator thingys drag across the panel. So the horizontal lines that mark the tab and drive position, well one of them peeled. No fault of the job, just a fault of design. I need to keep something like a spring on the indicators so they don't rest on the panel themselves, dragging across it while trimming up and down.
Other than that, I feel for the money invested, it was worth my time. Very happy with it.
