Printing decals
#7
The decal paper I used for the Tour car decals was "Experts-Choice" Item number 122 INK JET, from Bare Metal Foil Company, that I purchased at my local Hobby Shop.
I used Ace Hardware, quick drying clear lacquer spray. I let the decals dry overnight before applying the spray, and had no problems with the ink running. I did experience the curling problem, and in one place had to remove and replace the decal with a new one.
With any new material/process/technique, it always pays to "learn the tricks", before actually trying to use them.
We always learn far more from our own mistakes, than we will ever learn from another's advice.
The greatest place to live life, is on the sharp leading edge of a learning curve.
Lead me not into temptation.....I can find it myself!
