HELP! trumpeter decals
Posted by eags on Saturday, August 28, 2010 3:51 AM

Help Help Help!!!

I am a novice when it comes to modelling but am looking at ways of improving that everyday. I recently purchased the 1/35 Trumpeter Modern German KSK commandos figure set.

It comes with the decal camouflage for the uniform and webbing, but for the life of me I wouldn't know how to use them. I soaked them in water placed them on a cloth to soak up eccess water and used white vinegar to help it stick more, but the decals were just breaking up.

Any tips or advice would be so helpfull.

Eags,

If your decals are cracking or breaking up you can try Microscale Superfilm. You coat (paint over) your decals with the liquid and let dry. Then cut, soak and apply. This will typically work for cracking decals. Another thought is to purchase a set of aftermarket decals.

Best of luck........

Enjoy the ride!
