its carried by Walthers.. they make model railroading stuff.. in fact i think its made for them by Hobsco..

the product is on their website for ordering at the following url

http://www.walthers.com/exec/productinfo/904-470

and the main page is

http://www.walthers.com

if you get some you won't be sorry this stuff is great..

for an example on how it snugs decal's onto model details check out this pic of the white star on the front of my M8..

squadron.com has it too... you can't look for it by name in the search bar though, strange... just browse the decals/solvents section and it is almost at the end...

Gentlemen,

Thanks for the info. I found a bottle of Solvaset. I couldn't find any Solvasol however. I thought this stuff existed but I can't find it anywhere. Did it ever exist? Can it still be found?

Thanks,

Dave

I just order a bottle of both at www.squadron.com... I'll see if I can get a link...

ok I just reread your post, my bust... I thought you said Microset and Microsol... here is a link to microsol which does the same thing I think...

Dave,
There is no such thing as "Solvasol" as they're both basically in the same bottle. Think of Solvaset as the nuclear weapon of decal sets/sols. This stuff will etch the decal right into the paint. That's why I love it.
Cheers

FYI...it may take a while for a shipment to arrive due to the fact that paints, thinners, etc. are considered HAZMAT. It'll get to you, just expect a delay.

I don't know where I got the idea that there was such a thing as Solvasol. There are so few hobby stores near me that I'd be totally lost without the help of people on this forum.

Thank you,

Dave

I've found that using microset, it sometimes works, but with microsol, it ALWAYS works, just dont touch the decal once its on there, it will literally fall to pieces!
