i don't think you can use a settler once the decal has been dipped in future, the future i think will act as the settler. has anyone tried this technique?

im having trouble with Future too. i dont really want to be spraying the whole model. so if i use the future just on the decal can i still use a setter and then dullcoat? or future the decal then setter then future and then dullcote.

thanks for the tip! i just wanted to know if someone tried the particular technique that i mentioned? wanted to know if it were myth or fact.. just read it somewhere and was wondering if it were true. i've used future for quite some time now and was just curious about this. thanks again!

Use Future prior to decaling then use it again to seal decals after you apply them. You just need to brush it on over decals or if you prefer airbrush it on again over entire model and decals

It's that easy.

Future and decals..
Posted by Anonymous on Saturday, September 22, 2007 9:06 AM

quick question guys, supposing i have a dullcoat finish on my kit, is it true that if i use future to stick my decals i don't have to clearcoat my kit? that it will avoid silvering? just read about this and i'm curious.

thanks and just thought i'd ask the experts!
