Decal Question
Posted by Anonymous on Monday, May 24, 2004 9:52 AM
Hello All,

First time poster long time reader. I am close to finishing my first "adult" model. It is the Revell/Monogram P-51 "Big Beautiful Doll". Anyway my question is there are a few of the decal that are 2 layers. One is supposed to apply one then a another is applied on top to give a dual color effect. Should I apply a coat of Future or another clear coat between the decal applications? Or can you just put one right on top of the other after it dries. Any suggestions or expirences would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Ben

Hi Ben,

I ran into this situation a few months ago and asked a similar question here. I was told to simply apply the second decal on top of the first decal after the first one had dried. I tried it, and it worked perfectly.

No need to Future for the overlay.
