224 Peter Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Has anyone positive, or negative, things to say about this Decal/Transfer supplier? I have used them on two 1/32 scale kits, the Revell Typhoon and Beaufighter. Both kits have had Tamiya gloss varnish applied before applying the transfers. My experience: 1. The transfers are VERY thin -this is good! 2. The small stencilling transfers stretch and twist VERY easily 3. Micro set and Sol work well on larger transfers, such as roundels, but on smaller items seem to make the already fragile transfers self destruct. By way of contrast, the Revell and Xtradecal Transfers on the little Horton IX I finished a week or so back performed perfectly with Sol and Set on the same gloss varnish. Interested in any feedback!

spruecutter96 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Hello. If the smaller decals fall apart very easily, I would heartily recommend that you paint the decal sheet in two coats of Microscale Decal Film before using them. It's very good stuff. Cheers.

Agreed... I didn't think it through. I've even got some of the stuff.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
