I am normally really good with decals and more than once I have been commended on my decal finishes, and its one of my favorite parts of modeling. But this time I really don't know what happened. I apply the future and let it dry throughly. Then I apply the decals as I normally do. Let them dry then I applied my sol set and let it dry. All looked well, took care of all the silvering that I could see. I am using after market and the kit decals. I know Tamiya decals are a b*** sometimes but I have handled them before so no worries. Well anyway I apply my second coat of future and still I see no problems. I of course let that dry and go to dull coat. And what do I find? A few of the decals have suddenly silvered severely. Probably the worse case I have ever seen on a few of them. Just like that the decaling job is ruined. I can't look at the thing without seeing that. From three feet away it looks okay but any closer...ouch.
Anyway how can I remove the decals without damaging the paint? I know they can't be saved. It doesn't matter since I have another set of the same decals. But I really don't want to repaint the plane if I don't have to.
So my question is, is there a way to save the paint job but remove the decals or is it all a lost cause? I paint with acrylics and I let every thing set a day or two before moving on to the next step. So what can be done to save this project?
Thanks in advance.
