i believe you need to buy decal paper to print your own decals, then use the coat to protect the ink, if you're using an inkjet printer.

I buy Testor's Decal Paper at Hobby Lobby, both white and clear backgrounds..  I make the decal art in MS Paint (Don't have anything fancier, like Photoshop) and then print it (inkjet) on the decal paper.  Once that's done, I then spray it with Testor's Decal Bonder and I'm done.  Just make REALLY sure you don't get any bonder on the back of the paper where the artwork is, or you'll lock it into the paper forever... Several light coats is what you want to apply, not one heavy, wet coat...
