on the model. This will show up as a white line behind the
decal where it has not settled down. The solution to this is to
slice them ever so gently with a hobby knife down the length
of the board through the decal. I don’t use a sharp blade for
this as it can wander if you are not careful. Use a used blade,
not one that is blunt, but just not that new. The rest is a simple
matter of repetition. Take your time and position the decals
where you want them. The same applies to the ends of the car.
Once the car is completely decaled and dry, it is time to put on
another over-spray, this time of Dullcote or another flat finish.
This helps to hide the edge of the decal film and makes the let-
tering and heralds blend in to the sides and ends of the car. It is
also helpful in giving the finish some “tooth” for weathering.
