                        Hi Gang,

                        I am in the process of putting decals on the MRC 1/35 Blackhawk and am having lots of trouble with them.  They are curling even with Micro set and sol.  Any ideas, or should I punt and get a set of aftermarket decals.

                         

                        Thanks in advance

                        Ron

                        Did you glosscoat the surface first?  I didn't have any problems over a glossy surface.  If you are trying to apply them to a flat surface, they will not stick well and will leave silvering.

                        I put a coat of future down first.  They look like pretty nice decals, I hope that I dont have to scrap them.
