rzrtrav 15 Posted April 30, 2014 We bought this locker at an auction over the winter and finally got around to stripping it down and repainting it and of course making decals for it! My grandfather actually was a miner at Black Star Coal Camp back in the 50's. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jay2703 704 Posted April 30, 2014 Looks good. It is a damn poor mind indeed which can't think of at least two ways to spell any word. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coaster36 327 Posted April 30, 2014 Is that printed? If not how did you get that effect on the vinyl? Coal dust? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rzrtrav 15 Posted April 30, 2014 It is matte white vinyl, and to tone down the bright new look, I sprayed the same flat black spray paint used on the cabinet onto a paper towel and just rubbed over the decal after it was applied, hoping for the "coal dust" look.
