    Did a batch of these a while back, all vinyl is oralite reflective, backed with white.
    Thanks to Chris Windebank for taking a day out of his weekend to help fit.
    Got the go ahead thursday, 8 cars turned up Friday and were returned Monday!

    Nice job Peter well done…very quirky!

    You say all reflective, which must look great at night, but is not the red on the front illegal 😕

    The Domino’s driver round our way has an old knackered out Astra with a ‘driving school type sign on the roof..Always reminds of the pizza driver in ‘Home Alone’ 😀

    Nice job, the dominoes cars round here sound the same as around your way martin with the driving school type sign stuck on top of a clapped out old banger.

    Martin,
    Dominoes were made aware off the regs,
    they said that they were willing to take the chance of some jobsworth arguing against the safety aspect of the reflective. They have had a few accidents at night whilst delivering so wanted to be visible

    They look great Peter, they are all lined up at the correct angle which can be a pain in the a**e to do.
    I use either an inclometer or an adjustable spirit level to ensure multi stickers are at the same angle, how do you or others do it

    Correct angle? Thought we just slapped em on. Only kidding, Peter had a large t bar that we used from the level floor to get us started, the rest just followed on. Great day was had as Peter and Lynn are always great company.

    Hi Peter

    Could i ask a favour?

    I work for a company who is the main distributor for reflective material who i will not name. I am making a leaflet and needed inspiration for pictures for it, so i ended up here.

    I really like your pictures and I would really gratful if you gave me the right to use this in our leaflet.

    Did you use 5200, 5400 or 5600 oralite for this?

    Best regards

    Martin
