Adding homemade graphics

Here is what I use.. you should try it..

This works great to temporary install graphics.. to take pics with or what not.. you can use this instead of tape.. its double sided.. and when you pull it back off cause you dont like the placement of graphics or whatever.. live I have done a million times on my at4.. THIS DOES NOT PULL YOUR PAINT BACK OFF.. like tape of glue does..

Another suggestion is that you print the grapics you want from your printer.. (i do this) then use clear packaging tape.. the wider the better.. and tape both sides of the grapic.. then you super glue.. once you have done the step from above (this is permanent mounting) to put on the pack of your now laminated homemade sticker.. (just add a small amount) then stick it where you want it.. and its there forever..

Cool beans?

Later Tators

I've personally never done, but I think you can buy adhesive paper from Office Depot. It's like a giant sticker that you can print on to make cutting guides or logos.

u can.. but its like 14.00 for 10 sheets here.. and I am poor.. so i just make my own.. and the advhesave shown above it for temporary use.. just to see what the sticker will look like on your gun.. this does not pull your paint off when removed.

To go along with this 'graphics' post, here's a site that was posted in another post, http://www.warninglabelgenerator.com. It's pretty neat if you want to create some type of 'warning' sticker to put on your cannon. It will generate any type of warning sticker with your own personal touch.
