Wouldn't the insert decals have the necessary artwork on them? They're not much use otherwise surely.

But the decal just has the black outer line on it not the wording ie 'pine' in this case ????
I can't find an overlay/decal for that anywhere either.
I guess when they were made in the factory, they were screened on along with the rest of the playfield.

Darren just realised when you said sand the bottom of the cab of the fishtales - did you mean the inside as I have now actually sanded the bottom on the outside of it lol!!!!
Also if I sand the back of the head and lose the warning sign so I can repaint it in blue - can you re-print this for me and if so how and costs etc ?
cheers Kev
He meant the inside 
I did the bottom of the outside too as well as inside. If you're gonna do a job, may as well do it all 
Daz is deffo the man for re-screening the backbox

There's a set of decals on ebay
Like Paul has said, inside and out for the sanding.
Yes I can do the screen printing of the warning text for you.

Thanks Darren - how do we go about arranging that ?
How about you getting it done repaired and painted not decaled and get it to NERG. Then it's just getting it back to you.

Another thought Darren how close are you to sale? I start a new job in a couple of weeks and will be getting there quite a bit?
Cheers Kev
Not to close but maybe on route for you.

what sort of mileage de-tour would it be Daz on way back from Sale ?
If you go for the M6 back home you will pass me, I am only 5 mins from coming of M6 at junction 29.

Cool that might be a plan
Will have a chat at NERG and sort something out.

Darren you did say Peugot royal blue does the job equally as well as indigo didn't you ??? as that's the one I bought!!!
I seem to remember that one was a very close match, and the other was a fair way off - think indigo was the closest one... however still not perfect...
Royal or indigo, both will do the job.

OK been while since I made any progress on the Wh20 because of the new job start this week and NERG last weekend, so here is an update.
The cab is now stripped and decals removed - now needs the life sanding out if it to get it where it needs to be. The head is now all sanded, filled and painted and ready for @replicas to screen the warning message for me.
The playfield is now ready for the swap - here is a pic just before moving the loom over
Then we have the loomed transferred onto the new (2nd hand) playfield - took about 3 hours in all to do this.
And a side by side so you can see the difference on both sides!!! The new one has been clearcoated with autotek again - same as as my FT.
Think you can see the difference here!!!!
Playfield top side on its own
That's all for now folks!!!
Cheers Kev

Looking good Kev.
Have you splashed out for new ramps or are you reusing the old ones ?
Deep pockets needed for new but so worth it.

Have a look through @newdos's FISH TALES shop log as there are quite a few pics of it in there. Specifically, this post is where he mentioned building it:

I was very interested in it myself! Very clever as it only needs a few offcuts of carc, bolts and angle iron. And packs away neatly when not it use.

I will take some detailed pics when I have a minute and stick them on here - but its just PSE 3x2, two bits of dexion, some bolts, wood glue and screws - simples!!!!

Will have to see if the funds stretch to Daz - about £300 for a set plus decals that's a good £600 before all the other bits I have bought!!!!
Think the ramps for a wh20 will set you back nearer £500.
