Default RE: Decal Application Question

Yup..........soapy water works nicely, I had the same question yesterday and found another thread about it somewhere on here.

I cut the decals out of the film with a small pointed razor knife and made a soapy solution just enough to give me a constant surface tension on the plastic without leaving dry spots. Lets you position the decals nicely. When I was satisfied I took a soapy piece of scrap balsa and used it like a squeegy to afix the decal and work out any bubbles. The pic shows the end result.
