While on the topic of decal application, I thought I'd share a little tip. A couple years ago I picked up one of these decal squeegees in a whim. I was pretty sure it would be more or less useless, but I was making a big order from a hobby shop and it ended up on the pile. It sat ignored in my tool box until I had to apply a bunch of thin pinstripes to my latest build. I struggled with those miserable decals until I pulled the squeegee from the drawer. This thing is brilliant for working the decal in place, working out excess water and air bubbles and wrinkles, and helping those long, thin pinstripes lay down straight and in position. This would work very well for large panel decals, too. The end is a flexible silicone material. Highly recommended for any technical decal job.
