This is the correct side cover decal for the late T100C models from 1969 through 1972, with the block lettering. A smaller version of this transfer is applied to the top of the petrol tank.
The script measures approximately 3.5″ x 2.25″. This transfer is a thin waterslide variety, with a faint border that blends in with the finish of the side cover when clear coat finish is applied. Very nice accurate reproduction of the factory decal.
Waterslide decals are generally favored by restorers because the decal borders are not as prominent when applied and finished in clear coat. They can also be adjusted to the correct position while still wet.
A small basin of lukewarm water is used for submerging the decal for a moment, then when the backing paper is adequately saturated, the decal can be transferred off of the backing paper and onto the desired location. It is important to apply the decal to a clean surface. Blotting the decal with a clean cloth will help remove any air bubbles that may exist under the transfer.Â
