How to apply "transfers" (not decals) to tyres

[Funkychiken]

Hi All,

I have a Hasegawa Touring car kit, and it came with these tyre transfers.

Does anyone have an idea about how they are applied?

They are not decals - as can be seen in the image, they are reversed.

They remind me of the "rub on" fake tattoos that we had when we were kids... so I tried to "rub" a section of it onto a surface, it did not come away at all (you can see the "A" in a circle on the bi that's been cut away had been rubbed).

There is no mention of them in the instruction manual, and no references I could find on-line.

thanks for the help!!!!

This works for Tamiya, Fujimi  and Hasegawa. From our Brit freinds at britmodeller.com

This type of decoration is called "dry transfer" (for obvious reason).
