Tip for positioning decals

[goon]

I thought I might share this little thing I found out by accident this afternoon. I can't be the only one who gets very frustrated doing the final postioning of a decal when a brush is too soft to move it, and anything else risks damaging the decals.

This afternoon I picked up an old cocktail stick from my bench that had been used to apply Maskol. There was still some on the tip, and it's flexible, very slighty tacky texture proved just what was needed to make tiny adjustments to the decals. I made another one with a bigger blob on the end and it was great.

Hope it helps someone out, have a great new year everyone,
