Looks good, but I might have sprayed some clear on the deck first to fill in any imperfections in the wood and maybe even given it 2 coats and a light rub down before spraying the graphic on.

Where did you get that stencil

When I pulled the old sticker off that someone had made I used it alomg with some transfer paper.  I then took an old  sticker that was never used ( the kind that you  peel the bottom put it on and then peel the top off )   Itranferred the logo to the sticker   cut it out by hand with a exacto blade on a rubber matt.   Stuck it on , tapped up the board and whent to town spraying


This was the end result

Hey tony the clear coat just whent on after the graphics I used a crystal clear ( MATTE finish )  It looks KILLER  My camera battery ran out    its charging now I will drop more pics tonight
