G'day All,

I have most of my panel wired up. I have a fairly complicated layout and
would like to follow the labelling suggestions included with the
Aeroelectric Connection. I am intending to paint the panel a matt grey to
minimise reflections in the canopy.

How have people transferred the lettering to their panels? I'm specifically
wanting to print or transfer the lettering, diagrams to the panel after it
has been painted.

Thanks
Richard

Hello Richard,
I used the rub on transfers from ACS for most of the panel. Use the large ones if you go that way, they are pretty small anyway.
Also used a P-Touch label maker using the clear with white print on some of them. Used the outdoor type of label. They will lay down pretty good and look good on my matte grey panel.
If I had it too do over again, I think that I would use the P-Touch for all of them.
Good luck

I use "Datak" dry transfers.

http://www.oselectronics.com/ose_p52.htm shows an example

This is a very frustrating project if the panel is mounted in the airplane.

Not too bad if it is on the bench.

Matte Datakote over the entire panel.

This produces a product just as nice as silk screen. Costs little.

Star with a sample panel, test your process and the chemicals first.

Good Luck

todd

Al,
Fantastic, thanks for posting. It is rather difficult to find good
custom aircraft shops in the NE.
