Saveing old decals

using Future to keep,. otherwise exploding, decals together ..is a matter of timing ..I coat individual decals with a brush(individualy so it doesnt stress the decal when removed from paper, and i feel brushing insures a good thlck coat)..let the future dry for 20 30 min...dry enough it wont wash off when soaked but stillsoft enough it will "stretch" with the shape..I usually coat the model with future prior to decalling..and aftercoat with  75%future 25% tamiya acrilic flat base ....works for me

I've had luck with Krylon Crystal Clear Satin also.

Future may save them! Simply spray (or brush, Future is self-levelling) the Future over the entire surface of the decals. Let dry for 48 hours. You will have to trim each decal out individually.

Obviously damaged or cracked decals cannot be restored this way. It's floor finish, not magic!
