German Helmet Decals & German Stencils from WW2:
These are the worlds best museum quality water transfer decals currently on the market. They are extremely strong when properly applied to the helmet but we recognise that many also want to use lacquer glue to apply their decals and this water transfer decal is ideal for this. This decal is ideal for reenactors or helmet restorers as it can be aged using various techniques quite easily. Instructions for face down & face up application is here.
Why are our decals the worlds best and justify the price?
- Where possible we photograph genuine helmet decals - we have access to one of the worlds best militaria dealers.
- We use most of the publications on German Helmets where we can't find an original.
- Customers send us pictures of their genuine rare helmets and/or decals.
- We buy unapplied genuine decals - a very expensive route but we think it worthwhile to make the best.
- We use several photo editing software versions to get the the size, colour and physical make up correct for printing.
- We use colour matching inks and metallic inks to get the correct colour match. Our inks cost €270 per litre.
- Our oil based inks are the same as used in WW2 but the chromes and leads are removed to comply with H&S.
- There are NO plastics used at all, just as in WW2 it is refined and pure ink so there is no 'cutting' required.
- The shelf life is measured in tens of years, just like the WW2 versions.
- They flexible to apply and are heat resistant to over 120 centigrade, so you can oven bake them.
- There is no cutting required - if you need to cut out your decal it has been made by laser printing or plastic print.
- Our decals are screen printed just like the originals.
- The reverse of the 'silvered' decals are silvered ink - click here to see police decal example.
