I'm restoring a Funhouse pin and just got done applying new decals. Unfortunately, on the front (right were everyone can see), the corners of the decals are off after cutting. So... I'm thinking about adding a chrome piece to cover the spot and also protect the edges from peeling back over time. Any idea where I can find something like this?

Cool idea. I haven't seen these for sale anywhere, but they should be pretty easy to fabricate. My suggestion is that you find a local machine shop that can fabricate them for you.

Thanks, Mike. I'll give that a try. Maybe this is a business opportunity out there for someone.

Personally I would rather see the decal a little off than a piece of chrome added on.

^^^^^^^^^^^ Yep, I think it looks like a coverup.

Interesting... Thanks for the advice.

probably just auto angle molding. or something you can get at ace hardware. Once you do that, there is no going back, because the edges will dig into the decals, and will alter it to fit those. Just from people banging into them. Cabinet movement and what not. No going back if you go that route.
