Source for labels for dollies etc?

I need about a zillion different sized "YO" labels for all the dollies, tow contraptions, stands, stands for stands, rigging aids, fuel tanks, water tanks, and miscellaneous paraphernalia for the new glider. Can anybody recommend a good source of such labels?
Thanks,
See ya, Dave

Dave I went down to one of our local print shops that deals with vynal signs and 'raps' . I got large wing and tail contest numbers and a bunch of smaller numbers for my associated gear. The entire batch cost under $40.

Absolutely!
The key is to lay things out to use the entire width of the vinyl roll.
Besides appropriately colored and font letters for the trailer, dollies, etc, I have them make white vinyl dots which are useful to cover tailwheel axles and other access points.
They can also make "masks" for spray painting.

Dave I also have them make white inspection cover vinyls to use inplace of the standard inspection covers on the 1-26, probably doesnt make a hoot of difference but it makes me feel like I am tuning up my bird lol.

Ditto, though I used carstickers.com

-Green D's & red U's to idiot-proof the undercarriage placarding
- Rego/CN stickers for my rigging equipment
- Reverse (mirror) cut rego for mounting on the inside of the rear quarter window of my tow vehicle; &
- After a little work in Illustrator, a large JS1 Evo silhouette for the top of my rear windshield. Oooh, dead sexy.... :P

I used them for some lettering and was impressed with their online tool to design it. The stuff arrived three days after I placed the order.

Stickers or labels are a "band-aid"; they nick or pick or fall off. Better to have sign shop make negatives (stencils) and then spray paint with Rust-Oleum or equal.

As far as vinyl numbers etc, i had a set on my pilatus for over 8 years with the ship sitting out on the ramp for most of that time, so I dont think you will have a problem if you get them high quality from a reputable sign maker. The only special care I employed was giving the numbers a little wax every now and then.

Home Depot has reflective labels in different sizes that are good for starters.
