As mentioned above, make sure the acrylic is fully cured first. As an added precaution, apply a layer of Future over the decals. Many many years ago, I sprayed a coat of Testors Dullcote over bare decals and was treated to the sight of the decals literally splitting and curling up before my eyes.
Go light on the Dullcote - don't apply it too heavily or I can guarantee it will eat your base coat and decals. Mist it on, one thin layer at a time and allow it to dry before applying the next. If in any doubt, test on scrap first.
DISCLAIMER: I don't use Dullcote (Testors) - I use Gunze Acrylic clear flat as a "flat" coat.
