Title: Modeling Question Post by: TX-Chukar on May 27, 2008, 11:24:09 am Rah, those decals you spoke of in the other post sounded interesting. I was wondering if you have used them before? I guess my biggest questions would be if they are thin enough to set down on the smaller scale models and are they free from yellowing.

It's a sheet that you print the decals on to with an inkjet printer, then spray this clear stuff on to protect the ink. I think you then waterslide them on. The only question I had was, How do I print white? lol... I haven't used them yet but know where they are. Will pull them out tomorrow and see what they say... I was going to print the texas logo and the TX lettering and numbering. Blue 2...my original color/number :)Here's the link to what I have: http://www.testors.com/catalog_item.asp?itemNbr=2255There is also another company call beldecals: http://www.beldecal.com/inkjet_decals.cfmAnd look on the bel decal page, there are instructions on how to do it. I'll post more tomorrow once I've looked at the kit I have here... :)Regards,TX-Rahman"BLACK 4"

White would be tricky if you don’t have an ALPS printer. In you don’t have an ALPS which prints white I think you have to use the white paper. Then leaving the lettering blank and matching everything else to the back ground. Depending on the project (molted scheme) pretty tricky.
