Revell DECAL Soft

[wako1302]

Does anyone know how to us ethis stuff, the bottle is very short on information.

- Do I put the Decl in the stuff first then apply to the model

- Do I put the decal in water theb apply to the model then coat with the stuff

The model has already had 2 coats of vallejo Gloss Varnish ready for the decals and a final Matt Varnish.

Please help me I am totally lost on what to do ?

I have just used it and painted it onto the place where I wanted the decal to go then applied the decal. I then painted some more decal soft over the top. It sort of worked to a degree but it is not as good as Micro Sol / Micro Set. This was on a Spitfire and the underwing roundels have a lot of bumps and depressions to get into. The end result is not entirely convincing. Hope you have more luck!

I've used this stuff and its fairly decent stuff. The way I used it was to place the decal on the model as normal, then when everything is in position and you're satisfied, brush over the decal with the decal soft.

Do NOT touch the decal after this (unless it moves and you're quick) as the solution softens the decal and any 'playing around' with the marking after the solution has been applied will likely end in disaster - or a ruined decal at least, which is a disaster in my book.
