Carbon decal Ferrari 126C4M2 MFH

Post by mariobmw »

Hallo,
I have big problems to fix carbon decal template of my kit.
I used a tons of decal setting, but it's impossibile to fix them.
I used also a hair dryer. After an hour the decal still move!!
Did anybody had the same problems with this type of decal?
Thank you.
Mario

What brand of carbon decal are you using, and what kind of setting solution? For difficult carbon decals (like Studio 27), I've had good luck with really hot water to release the decal from the sheet, lots of Solvaset solution, and a hair dryer to get the decals to settle. It's also recommended to use cotton buds to dry off the setting solution before using the hair dryer, or you may get spots that won't come off.

It's decal inside the kit, not aftermarket one

This is the templated set for spraying thru I believe

Needs a TS-29 or other backer

Set the decal

Then spray silver, gunmetal or light gunmetal

But the key is to get the decal to conform
