Title: Nesbitts cooler finished.
Post by: Funtronics on February 27, 2013, 07:34:10 am
Here's a before and after pictures of a Nesbitts cooler that I just finished. I found the decal on the front at a show. It was a old water transfer decal. I had it recreated and made it into a vinyl decal. Cooler was a little rough when I started, but turned out really nice once finished.  :happydrinkers:

Yeah I agree with Matt,
 
I just don't understand Rod, how come you can't leave things orignal ... it was a great looking display as is and then you had to shine it all up and add decals..

Remember it's only original once.. now you gone and ruined it..!! way to go! :glare: :biggrin:
