Decals on rubber
Posted by Anonymous on Tuesday, December 9, 2003 10:23 AM
Hi,

I am wonder what you all are using to keep your decals sealed on your car or motorbike rubber wheels.

My decals on the rubber will start to peel off after a bit.

You should try this in the Auto Forum... More chances of having an answer. I'bve only built a few cars and none had such decals although I've had to paint some names with white paint onto one of those models tyres (the name was molded in!)

This was covered in FSM "Tips" several years ago. I am going through my back issues trying to find it. I have gone back three years and no luck yet.

If I remember, you have to soak the tire in something to release the oils in the tire prior to putting the decals on. I'll post as soon as I find it.
