These cards are the size of standard business cards - 85 mm x 55 mm and have been professionally printed on Bright White 300 gsm card. They are of excellent quality, with bright, rich colours. Printed on ONE side only. I describe the style of some cards as 'Reflective'. This is intended to be an accurate description of the colouring of the yellows in the design. These signs do not contain any special reflective properties. The other style is Hi-Vis, which uses a different, brighter yellow. These cards are non-adhesive.
These signs require careful cutting out with a sharp craft knife.
Introducing my UK LONG VEHICLE Mini Sticker sets.
Welcome to the complicated world of UK Long Vehicle Signage!
My 1:76, OO Scale UK LONG VEHICLE Mini-Sticker sets are approximately 67 mm x 22 mm. They come in various 'Types' which are required on different vehicles according to the size and age of the vehicle.
TYPE 1-3 signage is the MINIMUM required if you're modeling an older UK Goods Vehicle first used BEFORE 1 April 1996 NOT Exceeding 13 metres or an older Trailer manufactured BEFORE 1 October 1995 NOT Exceeding a combined Tractor/Trailer Length of 13 metres. Each set contains enough markers for 16 Lorries - only one long sticker (TYPE 1) or a pair of shorter stickers (TYPES 2 & 3) are required on each.
TYPE 4-5 signage is required for an older UK Goods Vehicle first used BEFORE 1 April 1996 EXCEEDING 13 metres, or a Trailer manufactured BEFORE 1 October 1995 EXCEEDING a combined Tractor/Trailer Length of 13 metres. Each set contains enough markers for 12 Lorries - only one long sticker (TYPE 4) or a pair of shorter stickers (TYPE 5) are required on each.
My TYPE 1-5 mini sticker sets are a combination of the above two mini-sticker sets. Each set contains enough markers for 10 Lorries, but you have markers from both of the above sets on one sheet.
I've been experimenting with Yellows for the above stickers. The reflective Yellow is tricky to replicate because it can seemingly change colour depending on which angle you view it from. For that reason, I've developed LIGHT & DARK Reflective versions as I couldn't decide which I like more, so I'm letting my customers decide!
COMING SOON: TYPE 6-9 signage: required if you're modeling a UK Goods Vehicle first used AFTER 1 April 1996 NOT Exceeding 13 metres, or a Trailer manufactured AFTER 1 October 1995 NOT Exceeding a combined Tractor/Trailer Length of 13 metres. Each set contains enough markers for 8 Lorries - only one long sticker or a pair of shorter stickers are required on each.
and TYPE 10-13 signage: the minimum required if you're modeling a UK Goods Vehicle first used AFTER 1 April 1996 EXCEEDING 13 metres, or a Trailer manufactured AFTER 1 October 1995 EXCEEDING a combined Tractor/Trailer Length of 13 metres. Each set contains enough markers for 8 Lorries - only one long sticker or a pair of shorter stickers are required on each.
These stickers require careful cutting out with a sharp craft knife.
The "Load Up With Re:LOADS" & "Re:LOADS" WATER MARKS will be removed from the cards & sticker sets you receive!
*Colours may vary. I do my best to describe and portray all colours accurately, however, there may be slight variations with the shade of certain colours. Lighting and computers can also effect how the colours appear.
