    Cool, I'll order some of those. Have the same thing on my SV1 kit in black.
    I'll try without the shielding, I think looking into the purple cavity around this artwork through the clear scratchplate might be worth the risk... I will shield the electrics with copper tape.

    Yeah mate, but you will need to use an acrylic clear or a fixative agent over the decal once it’s dried after printing. I use a product called Krystal kote. Basically it stops the ink bleeding out when you soak the decal. I normally giv it a couple of coats over before I try to apply.
