DECAL TIPS
• Rub the clear front film before you remove the decal from the paper backing to ensure it lifts fully
from the backing.
• Remove the clear fronting by pulling it gently of to one side once the decal has been applied. DO
NOT pull this clear film directly upwards as this could cause the decal to tear.
• To avoid bubbles under the larger decals use a sharp blade to remove the small molding marks
from the surface of the foam where the decal is to be applied.
• Scale "Maintenance" decals found on "p.32" sheet can be used on either scheme (these are vinyl
type).
• Position all decals carefully, once applied they cannot be removed without lifting the paint from the
model.
• Be patient and take your time when applying the decals, this will reward you with the perfect finish.
• It is strongly recommended that a covering iron is used to seal the edges of the decals. If not,
changes in temperature can result in the lifting of the edges.
