Hey there guys, just a quick question.

I'm trying to apply the Dark Angel tact squad symbol (the <=> one) to my squad shoulderpads, and for the life of me I cannot get them to comfortably wrap around without creasing or sticking up at the top. I've tried trimming off excess transfer as much as possible, but to no avail.

I've heard of using Micro Sol/Pro, which softens the transfer, but don't have any available to me. Are there other alternatives or techniques to get the decal to behave?

In short, no. Micro set and micro sol are your friends, get them.

Longer; yes, there are other decal fix type solutions you can buy, but I've found that having the two different strength solutions makes working more consistent and reliable.

Follow this guide and you should be fine.
