Title: Did restore..now continue to rest??

This is the pirated Pepsi dispenser. Cleaned the damaged side and applied water decal of the best possible match. I think the side looks better and I will have the letters redone to finish it off.

Now..should I do the other side as well?

the one that is originally on the cooler? The only pics I have are not close up..

I could send the pics directly to you, they are a lot bigger than can post here.

Well I just got the dispenser back from lettering repair. Applied the decal on the other side as well.

So from a pirated Coca Cola back to the original Pepsi. I think this is all I can do here (just like the Cars say...)

I did learn some decal removal tips along the way as well, it was a bit hard not to remove the original paint when sanding off the decals.
