mhaselden Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Has anybody used Bestfong decals? I've been looking for Chinese Nationalist insignia and Bestfong seem to have the best colour match (most kit decals seem to be following a trend of the blue being overly pale when the actual colour was quite dark). However, before I take the plunge and invest, I'd like to hear of any experiences from modellers who've applied Bestfong decals to their kits. Many thanks, Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hendie Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 I believe I used Bestfong decals on my Wessex build (found here...), and found them to be pretty easy, and good to use. I used micro sol and set with them and they behaved perfectly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brown Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 I popped in ere cause I thought someone said "Best Thong". Sorry, I completely got the wrong idea! Rick. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antoine Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Got loads of them from my stay in Taiwan, but... never used them so far. Back there, they were really cheap, but I saw them on ebay from other sellers with prices climbing like rockets! May I suggest you to get them straight from Bestfong?

mhaselden Posted January 7, 2017 Author Share Posted January 7, 2017 Hendie, Antoine, Thank you for the answers. Antoine, I saw that you had some Bestfong decals for one of your in-progress builds but I couldn't see it completed so I presume it's still a WIP. If you do get to the decaling stage, please ping me as I'd like to hear how they perform. Rick, Go and stand in the naughty corner...AGAIN!!! Cheers, Mark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antoine Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Hi Mark, more a WISB (Work in stand-by) for the time being, yes, and no alternatives because I'm out of workbench, and it will be so for the best part of 2017 I'm afraid. Check with Col, he work currently on the same kind of PLAAF P-51D, and I know he'll use Bestfong decals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhaselden Posted January 8, 2017 Author Share Posted January 8, 2017 (edited) ***UPDATE: Disregard the message below. Found the thread on the STGB and it's "Col." who's making the PLAAF F-51. Please return to your regularly-scheduled programming.*** Thanks Antoine. Do you mean ColFord? Just checking 'cos there are lots of "Col" user names on BM. Many thanks, Mark Edited January 8, 2017 by mhaselden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antoine Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Sorry, should have been more precise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhaselden Posted January 8, 2017 Author Share Posted January 8, 2017 No worries, mate. Managed to get hold of Col. and he'll keep me posted on how things go with his Bestfong decals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
