Cracked decal question

If nothing else, you could make the aircraft look like it was sitting somewhere for a long time.

It really depends on how they were stored. Who made them too.

Looks to me they're old decals. I highly doubt Micro Set being "aggressive" when applied is the cause.

You didn't put too much on . I had some old Aeromaster decals (probably from the same time frame-say 96-97 or so) . They were just crap after that long. I had to buy another set of decals.

It's hard to tell from the photo, but the red looks off and that probably is a dead old decal.

Micro Sol is aggressive, I try not to use it unless it isn't working with Micro Set.

Probably your best bet is to rip off as much of it as you can with tape. Lightly sand and put another one down over it. Good luck.

my heart is always in my mouth after the decal starts to wrinkle after microsol.  sometimes it smooths itself out, sometimes it needs a little help, and sometimes its terminal.

Probably a combination of Sol, age, and condition conspiring against you. Wish it was fixable.
