Hey.

I did a quick search but didn't see what I was after. Can anyone name a decal, ah, "molding priduct" (ideally a 'household' cleaner or similar) that i could find reasonably easy that will allow me to smooth out decals on pauldrons and what not? I have some Fist termies and I'm finding the decals don't sit flush on the shoulder, so far all I've been able to come up with is micro cuts with a razor to smooth out the air bubbles, but its less than ideal. I top coat in that new paint solution who's name I forget but isn't 'ardcoat. This helps a little, but its still not perfect.

There's some crap I can get that dissolves them so they're less rigid and prevent air bubbles - could someone tell me what it is and where I could get it in Sydney?

Thanks very much

Microsol/microset is the stuff you want, you should be able to find it in a craft/ hobby store.

I asked the same questions a while back and Winterdyne posted this and it was a great help to me. The part with gloss varnishing was really important.
