Re: Vinyl car wrap or paint
Pat, yes there is a USB cable connection on the Cricut. As for the vinyl, I bought mine off ebay. I got three colors - red, white, and black. The deal was 12" wide by 50' total length divided up however I wanted for about $26 shipped. I ordered a 20 foot roll of white, a 20 foot roll of black, and a 10 foot roll of red. Depending on what you need, you can find a dealer that sells that combination. They also sell layout paper, but I didn't use it. We applied all of our vinyl using a soapy water spray so they could be slid into position.
Here is a closeup of a few of the decals I made.
For the Valvoline logo, I cut it in red, black, and blue and pieced the colors together on the car. Same with the Chumpion decal. I started with a logo and modified the letters and then cut it in black and red.
The decals stayed on the car really well, even under the gas cap where fuel dripped down over the vinyl at every fuel stop.
EDIT: One more thing. When we raced at NL last year, our decals were done on a vinyl printer. Each sticker was printed on a background. They didn't stay on well, the white backgrounds yellowed within hours and the color peeled off the vinyl easily. Solid vinyl colors work much better and last longer.
