Vinyl Wrap Variax

As in my other thread, my scratch builds are on hold as I had a significant allergic reaction. So I'm reassembling my Variax with a vinyl wrap. I bought some sticky vinyl inkjet paper, printed out my avatar and voila -

I've given it a couple of coats of lacquer to protect the ink and reassembled. The Variax has been in ieces for so long I'd forgotten how good some of the settings are.
I don't think the vinyl would be hardy enough for stage use but it's fine for home recording & noodling.

Where'd you get the paper?

Where'd you get the paper?

From PPD via Amazon (in the UK) - try 'adhesive sticker paper' or 'vinyl printable paper' in their search (or in greatgooglymoogly.com)
