Restoration Labels, Transfers or Stickers for Classic Mopeds

Labels, transfers or stickers? What's the harm?

When restoring mopeds I always have opted for good quality reproduction transfers. These transfers are UK manufactured using traditional techniques and when applied correctly will provide the best possible finishing touch to any restoration.

Transfers also give the option to position the image on the bike in the exact position required compared to stickers.

Regrettably I have had complaints from customers whom have bought sheets of sticky labels thinking they are getting a bargain. What they have received are home made copies on standard label paper printed from poor quality standard colour printers. The cost of a sheet of label paper is currently pennies, the cost of ruining a restoration? 

To restore a bike I know how many hours it takes to strip and clean up and then repaint. The paint needs to be a good match and time taken to apply correctly. Paint is available by clicking here.

High Quality Moped Transfers are also available for sale from Classic Moped Spares by clicking here

You do not need to buy from Classic Moped Spares, please please please be aware of what you are purchasing.
