Great work, in regards to the heater how did you go about re-doing the white letters?

Reason I ask is I have this job to do myself at some point?

Hi...
The paint is VHT wrinkle plus... quite great to work with.. :). Just need to practice a few times to do it right, and get the correct crackle.. more paint = more crackles....

The letters is screen printed on by a company here in Denmark.. you can´t do that by your self good enought I belive. But I´ve been in contact with a man i Uk too. He´s name is David.. You can try to contact him on:

http://www.adgscreenprinters.co.uk/ He might be able to help you with the letters.

Regards René
