My first experiment with the A/C compressor labels. So-so results. I like the thickness of the material, but the toner is too transparent. However, I still liked it better than the repro because the logos, fonts and size are more correct so I put it on anyway. I mimicked the stamping effect by getting creative in Illustrator.

I may have a small batch made on metallic material by the sticker company since their ink is more opaque and see how they come out.

Existing reproduction (too short, wrong logos and fonts)
