RE: Silk Covering Techniques

Hey, I gotta question....Can vinal stickers be used over silk/silkspan covering? If so will the thinners in the dope clearcoat eat them up? I was looking to make some up on my inkjet printer to replace some waterslide decals in an old kit....the old ones aren't useable as is.

Thanks
Steve

I have vinal stickers on some of my planes. I haven't tried to clear coat over them though.

I have clear coated over decals though. Try a test piece first. For the most part no trouble, but I have had some wrinkle up.
