The issue comes down to the vinyls afterwards though with transfers. Couple of years with the vinyl in the same place and the paintwork fades around it. Take off the vinyl for a transfer and you've an imprint of the vinyl in fresh looking paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colour of bus is irrelevant - it is the amount of traffic on the roads that is the issue.😀 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
