  1. Sure. now that you can't get them anymore and you have to go to eBay. Not if they re-issue them.
  2. Well said and as far as I'm concerned, ALL decals suck, except when the cooperate with you.

  5. That link again: https://www.round2corp.com/contact-us/ Ask Round 2 to bring back the Goodyear Polyglas and Firestone Wide Oval tire packs we all miss.
  6. All I know is that the heat will surely dry everything out and that's totally the opposite of what I'm trying to do here. If you are talking vinyl decals, I could see that, but these are water slide decals, and a completely different approach is needed here.
  7. I'm not going near my decals with any kind of heat. I would think that would have a completely detrimental effect on this procedure. I can't imagine where you ever got the idea to do this. I'm trying to keep the decal wet until it's completely in the right position, then I let it dry for at least 24 hours before clearcoating over them. If you are using heat, you are completely doing it the wrong way.

    Casey??

    I sent him a message on eBay. Let's see if he gets back soon.
  10. Now that's teamwork! ?
  11. These seem to have settled down a bit after some drying. I'm a little apprehensive on the body. Mayby I should go back and order the Micro Sol then pick it up from there.
  12. Ping! You're correct. The Late, great Rodney Dangerfield. That really was a classic movie. Up there with Caddy Shack. I'll have to go back and watch it yet again. ?
  13. I think I dodged a bullet on the hood. That's probably as good as I'm gonna get it. I'm a little apprehensive for the body. Maybe I'll wait until I get the Micro Sol before I carry on with the body decals.
  14. We need more! Contact Us | Round2 (round2corp.com)
  15. For some reason that stuff doesn't do the trick anymore. The new go to is the purple Super Clean. Widely available.

  17. You've inspired me to do just that Gene. I just emailed them. If everybody does this, surely, they will notice this Monday morning when they come back to work from the weekend. Hopefully, they will hear us. Here is a link to make it easier. Contact Us | Round2 (round2corp.com)
  18. I'm by no means a beginner at this. I've been applying these waterslide type of decals since the mid 70s when I was a pre-teen. You would think it would be a walk in the park by now. Back then, there was no decal set or decal solvent. Just plain old water and just about no attention to cleanliness and it seemed to go pretty smoothly back then. I'm using the Micro Set by itself. Should I order some Micro Sol and pick this project up at a later date? I just can't get the decals to sit flat, even on a flat surface. I have 4 more decals to do on the body. This is proving to be far more nerve racking than I thought it would be.

    Casey??

    I've been wondering the same thing. There was another thread about this a while back. Hope everything is okay.
  20. I really should order some of that Micro Sol and do the body decals at a later date. I am just having trouble getting the decals to lay flat. Even on a completely flat surface. Any tips?
  21. I'm trying to press on. I got the hood decals on without my head exploding. This is really stressful.
  22. Just ordered my Ray's kits Freeweelin' decal kit on eBay. Glad that's out of the way.
  23. Have no clue why they don't start re-issuing this tire kit and the Firestone Wide Oval one. You would think this would be a no brainer. ?????????????????????
