I print with inkjet either on glossy/matte adhesive paper or on adhesive vinyl sheet.

Then I clean the sheetmetal surface from greasy fingerprints or dust or other disturbing microscopic  microbes.

Then I attach the colorful adhesive printout onto the clinical clean thin sheetmetal by avoiding bubbles between surface and coating material.

Then I cut carefully the outlined 2D shape either with scisors or with a sheetmetal cutter.

Finally I bend the 3D bodyshell of a B-unit.
