REFLECTOR: Placards

[Douglas Holub]

I was going to get some custom vinyl labels made for the 5 placards on my panel, but I knew it was going to cost me more than $100, and it would be a pain to make changes later if I needed to. So I Googled and found out that I could print black background and white text on Avery shiping labels using Word and a laser jet or ink jet printer. They came out very nice. My hangar mate thought they were done professionally. 

The first time I did it the placards looked great for awhile, but then they started getting all smudgy.  So I looked for some sealer in a spray can, and found VitaClear Transfer Coat which is used for sealing decals on models, I think. Now no smudges. I've attached the Word document of my placards in case anyone wants to use them for a boilerplate for use on Avery 5263 2"x4" adhesive shipping labels.
