After decaling I'd like to give the model a quick shower with soap + water to remove dust before I apply Future. Will the decals start coming off when moistened?
It is possible depending upon the decals. Some have better qualities than others.
The best way to avoid that and remove the dust is to use a fine soft brush.
F is for FIRE, That burns down the whole town!

Yes. Plus. Water is really impure and full of crud.
Stik is right.
Modeling is an excuse to buy books.
Yes they will come off. I am at a loss why you feel the need to wash with soap and water to remove dust when a simple blast of air from a compressor or soft brush would suffice. Makes no sense....
Hello There !
I would NOT recommend a wash . I sometimes use a damp paper towel or " T " shirt and wipe gently .Most of the time though , I use a squirt or so from the Airbrush ! Clean air and no dust !
I wonder . Are you covering your model after working on it ? Find a store bought Cake Container the right size and then keep the model covered between work sessions . I Do , and it aint easy with very large ships !
Besides it's fun eating the cakes anyway .
Why risk breaking off parts, possibly lifting decals and even getting water in a cockpit or behind clear parts? Lightly blow compressed air and use a soft long bristled brush to remove any dust.
You apply the decals first and then Future? It should be the other way around.
Too many models to build, not enough time in a lifetime!!

And seal it in the clearcoat other than Future. Future is water based.

Yes but it’s like steel once it cures.
