Brush Micro Set to the surface to improve adhesion before applying decal. (Can also be used to remove them)

Brush Micro Sol onto decals applied to irregular surfaces so they better conform to the contours and appear "painted on".

Thanks guys.
It's not a product I have ever really used, but I have just ordered some.
I have ordered some custom decals for a project I am working on, and these decals will need to wrap around and conform to some compound curves.
Lets see if this stuff is the "miracle fluid' that will do the job.

Just back from my world tour.

Ray you might find the the Set and Sol are not strong enough a solution to get the forming required. If the decal film is thin they might be OK. I have used Solvaset and MR Mark Softer for more difficult decals as they have a 'hotter' solution and attack the film more vigorously making them conform better.
