Information

As you can see by opening the ‚Home’-button we remanufacture and sell transfers for old motorcycles, mopeds, scooters, bicycles and cars etc.
We started the business in 1979 so we have considerable knowledge and experience of transfers.
With a few exceptions all our transfers are real waterslide transfers, which means they consist of varnish only, as this was in common use until the 1960s..
The pictures on our website are not to scale, so pay attention to the specification of your measurements.

Catalogue

We have a comprehensive catalogue for sale, this is in German only, which contains the complete range, with order numbers, description, sizes, prices and the transfers are illustrated in black & white to ½ scale. The price of the catalogue is € 7,- incl. postage for sending within Germany.

Please call us for the postage costs for sending the catalogue abroad.

Prices, ordering and delivery

All the prices stated are in Euros (€) excluding VAT and postage, so please ask for the complete costs for delivery abroad by phone or by Email before ordering.

You can order by post, Email, telephone and telefax or preferably with the completed order form from our website.
Normally your order is sent out the next day.

Developement or reproduction of new transfers

Our range of transfers consists of brand logos, characters etc. from unrestored vehicles and parts from our customers as well as original transfers.
In general we’ll always need the reconstructable transfer either as an original transfer or on a part of the vehicle to reproduce a new pattern. We will send this pattern after about 3-4 weeks. If the pattern is acceptable we will manufacture a minimum of 100 with our next print, which takes place about twice a year.
For your contribution you buy 10 of these transfers (= 10 pairs if left and right are different) for the normal price, we then include the new transfer in our range and carry any further expenses such as graphic and printing costs.
The expected price for a reproduced transfer is normally about the same as for a comparable one in our range..

If you would like to have an individual waterslide transfer produced i.e. your own logo or something similar, which will not fit into our range and we will be unable to sell, you will have to buy the whole print, the minimum number is 100 items.
We must always discuss the details of every individual reproduction – this is not possible in written form. Please call monday to friday between 6-8 pm only.

Questions

Please avoid postal questions, as this takes a disproportionate amount of time which can result in very long delays.
If you wish to telephone us evenings at around 7-8 p.m are preferable.
If correspondence by post is unavoidable don’t forget to include a sufficient amount of cash or stamps if you want a reply.

Fixing instructions for our waterslide transfers

Surface must be clean, free of grease and dust.
Immerse the transfer in hand warm water for about fifteen seconds and allow the transfer to curl.
Remove the transfer from the water and allow a little waiting time for the water to soften the gum to release the transfer from the backing. At this stage the transfer and backing will flatten out again.
Slide the transfer so the design just overlaps the backing, then apply by sliding out the backing from between the transfer and the workpiece (petrol tank, mudguard or whatever).
Position carefully and eliminate air bubbles by gently stroking the transfer with the moistened backing and mop up excess moisture.

Allow to dry out completely for at least 48 hours.

On some transfers, not on all of them (» see the included fixing instructions which comes with every delivery) you can remove the top layer of the transfer, a transparent varnish, as soon as the surface is dry.

If you like to overvarnish wait another 48 hours and try out your varnish on the enclosed test piece. If using two pack the first coat must be a light mist followed by a full coat about thirty minutes later.
