I've used Sol/Set on Micromark decal paper with a clear spray set, no problems.

Has anyone used Sol/Set on those homemade jobbers?  I was looking at that but if the Sol/Set kills them i don't want to waste the money

if you have an inkjet printer,go to Wal Mart and get thier kit(it has some white paper,clear,and bonder)

thier program isn't very good,but if you have Paintshop Pro,or another good photo program use that...create the decal that you want and print it on REGULAR paper first to confirm the size is correct

after your satisfied with the result,use the decal paper(if it has ANY white in it,use the white paper...let it dry for about 10 minutes and then spray a light coat of bonder on it,,let that dry for about 20 minutes.

cut the decal as close to the edges as possible and it's ready,,,they seem to be a little fragile,but work well

I know this has been asked before so I will ask for someone to point in the right direction to one of the previous threads on how to make your own decals. I am looking for what supplies I need and what type of printer can be used.

 

Thanks for dealing with the same question over and over again.
