Genuine NOS Serotta Couer D'Acier Ultra Thin Bike Frame Decals OEM Mult Colors

Description: These are the last of the genuine OEM Serotta Factory decals. I purchased them from the new owner of the old Serotta factory when it was re-purposed recently. This listing is for 4x of "Couer D'Acier" model top tube decal only. Please specify which color you want. I have them in: Black/WhiteCharcoal/SilverRed/BlackWhite/BlackSilver/Black/All White I sell these as double sets because they are tricky to apply. I also have complete decal sets in many variations as well as fork decals - "Serotta F3" variations and also the small "S" decals in some colors, material decals (that sit new the intersection of the seat tube and top tube "Colorado C4Ti" etc.). Some of the vintage font decals, some of the latest/last generation decals and others. Happy to combine shipping. These are new old stock and have been sitting around for awhile. They still stick and hold well but are really tricky to apply. I sell them as double sets in case you damage any during installation. I've included some instructions (below) but it's really best to have them put on by a professional. These are very thin and made to go under the clearcoat on a painted frame. They do fine when used without clearcoat but are fairly easy to nick and damage if you're not careful. Some of the sheets have some old rubber band residue that does not affect functionality. SEE PICS. I have the thicker 3M vinyl decal sets for sale separately - they are thicker, more durable, and easier to apply but not ideal for clearcoating over - they were originally intended for use on raw titanium frames but stick well to other materials and painted frames as well. RECOMMENDED INSTALLATION (if you're a pro and have a better technique please let me know!): 1. Thoroughly clean application surface - isopropyl alcohol works well just make sure it's completely dry before the next step. 2. Measure and your placement with pencil to help guide you or be very careful about your placement as it will likely not be possible to move your decal once applied. 3. Remove the front sheet from the decal to expose the sticky / down side of the decal - the proper side will come off easily. 4. Carefully position and apply the decal by gently rubbing from the center out to avoid trapping air bubbles. 5. Using your finger or a clean dry cloth with fast, small circular strokes - the heat and pressure will help bond the decal to the surface and release it from the backing.6. Making sure to keep the decal in place carefully peel it back the long way making sure that it's adhering as you go along by rubbing it with your finger nail or credit card. It's okay if they tear a little - as long as you keep it properly lined up - you won't see the tears. Usually it's the pointy edges that are the trickiest parts to get started. Be especially careful not to lose your placement towards the end of the decal as less material will be holding it in place. 7. Gently rub the decal to make sure all the edges are secure - you should be able to see which need help. Small air bubbles should go away with a little time. Bigger ones can be carefully popped with a pin and smoothed out. 8. Avoid major abrasion for a week or so - it takes several days to a week for the decal to properly set. Probably best to wait a few days before clear coating as well. GOOD LUCK! If you have any issues or think your decals may be defective please contact me directly and I'm happy to help out before opening a complaint with ebay. Thank you!
