What about those labels you used to be able to get for a printer to make your own t shirts? Just an idea. Suede... nice...

I wanted to make it into a old mongoose seat - black with the gold lettering but fell that a sticker might not not look right unless really pressed on tight !

it's almost as it needs to be stenciled on in gold paint ?




anyone has a close up of a early suede goose seat with the gold lettering please  :angel:

You need a print shop that does Hot foil embossing :daumenhoch: it will cost you a bit for set up,you need to pay for a one off stamp/dye that you should be able to keep afterwards,the procedure is the same for printing credit card style business cards etc :daumenhoch:
