JinxDuh Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 Sorry if it’s not the right place to ask, not really sure where else to put it… I’m looking to replace the “export” markings on my G36 build to the “SEF” version. I’m rather stumped on where to look to acquire the correct font/size decals, or what to even look for. Anybody done this, or know where to find any decals? I measured the markings on my AG36 UGL and they’re 3mm. I found some similar but they’re 6mm and no good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Lozart Posted February 8 Supporters Share Posted February 8 The SEF markings are usually inset (moulded in) and then coloured but the font you'll need is https://www.1001fonts.com/alte-din-1451-mittelschrift-font.html You can get water transfer paper that works in an inkjet printer and make your own (although the white will be an issue) JinxDuh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The printing idea is a great shout, I might have to give it a try Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The printing idea is a great shout, I might have to give it a try I've done it before on custom paint stuff. If you can, put some clear lacquer over the letters to stop then scratching off!

GearTech Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 There are companies out there that will print you white water slide decals. One charges around £50 for an A4 sheet which is "double pass" Ideal if its going on a black background as the white stands out more. The single pass, around £28 a sheet is a bit opaque.

Enid_Puceflange Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 (edited) Ask @Louish118 He had a friend knock up some HK trades for my TM 416 (only has trades on one side from factory) and very good they are too 👍 Edited February 9 by Enid_Puceflange Louish118, Lozart and _K4MF_ 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mp5a4 Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Note you will need to change the selector switch as well. The Din markings should be correct but I've found "Full Sans SC 70 Medium" to be closer to the actual markings. I've considered using high quality stickers (like used on simracing wheels) so they can be aligned around the selector switch before removing the upper adhesive cover but not sure they would last long. If you have a TM recoil shock or VFC GBB, you can buy an OEM trigger housing with SEF markings already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
