Apply the Decals

1. Use scissors or a sharp hobby knife to cut the decals

from the sheet.

2. Be certain the model is clean and free from oily fi ngerprints

and dust. Prepare a dishpan or small bucket with a mixture
of liquid dish soap and warm water—about one teaspoon of
soap per gallon of water. Submerse the decal in the soap and
water and peel off the paper backing. Note: Even though the
decals have a “sticky-back” and are not the water transfer type,
submersing them in soap & water allows accurate positioning
and reduces air bubbles underneath.

3. Position decal on the model where desired. Holding the

decal down, use a paper towel to wipe most of the water away.

4. Use a piece of soft balsa or something similar to squeegee

remaining water from under the decal. Apply the rest of the
decals the same way.
