OK, so I got the LED swapped for a green one, and applied a decal to the enclosure. I am not happy with the new decal paper. The stuff from Dr Decal and Mr Hyde was great. I could apply a large decal and it would adhere well and wasn't prone to wrinkles or bubbles. Unfortunately I have used it all up, and this was the first use of a different brand. I thought it would all be sort of the same, like printer paper. But this stuff doesn't seem to adhere quite so well, and wrinkles every time I even look sideways at it.
I think I got it sorted in the end, and some of the issues in the photo are from the poor nighttime lighting, but I won't really know until the morning when it has dried. It also appears to be positioned slightly high, but the stuff is so fragile and hard to get flat that I couldn't move it any further. And this was the second attempt!
Best case it will be fine. Worst case it will fail to adhere or just look terrible. In that case I will have to soak it off and come up with a new plan, probably one involving ordering more decal paper from Dr Decal and Mr Hyde.
