Default Sticker on Powdercoat?

Ok so this is sort of a paint/powder question. I just had my tank powdered denim black and want to have a custom graphic/sticker made up for it. I know that tanks come from the factory with clear coat over the stickers for good reason.... so just wondering if anyone knows a good method, type of sticker, blah blah blah, to put a graphic on the tank and have it last?

any vinyl decal will work just fine. hell you could have put it on and had your coater clear it, problem is not many coaters are experienced enough to know this is a possibility.

Yeaa I didn't want any clear on top tho...we'll see how long that lasts. haha So just a vinyl sticker should hold up well to the elements? I wanted this made into a sticker for each side of the tank..

yep should be fine, any decent vinyl shop will know what to get you. it is going on a bike it is not like it will see a ton of use and abuse like a car hood or something
