Doing up an old Gregg Webb single fin for the son and looking for some ideas/help in retaining the name on the bottom of the board (painting the bottom). Have attached photo to explain.
Looking for an easy way to do it.
Some options i can think of.
Transfer image into photo editing program from photo and reprint another sticker? Try and use masking tape and cut around the original? I guess final option would be to use the skinny tape car detailers use?

Not sure i have done the photo insert thing properly, seems a bit big? First time I have tried putting in a pic

That can definitely be traced on the computer to reproduce it accurately. I have traced a hand drawn logo from a photo onto a computer and it worked out pretty good, that one would be time consuming but easy.

You can sand around it and remove all the **** glass and maybe hand sand over the logo then reglass the whole lot....probably no cloth over the label just filler coat
