PeterC(MrMondeo) Posted December 14, 2010 Posted December 14, 2010 Hi guys , i am in need of some help as to the best way to apply carbon fibre decal to a bonnet , without getting creases , i have got micro set and sol, but it keeps getting creasese in it , any tip or tricks greatly received , cheers
Chillyb1 Posted December 14, 2010 Posted December 14, 2010 My suggestion would be to use a hair dryer. This is something I've gleaned from other modelers and I was astonished at how well it works to snug down those pesky wrinkles over larger surfaces.
cruz Posted December 14, 2010 Posted December 14, 2010 Stick with the micro sol, not the micro set if the decal is from Scalemotorsports.
Gray Smith Posted December 16, 2010 Posted December 16, 2010 my technique is to use some sol and set, some heat from a hair dryer set on low, q-tips and water...it takes a little while but i've had success with the above combo... Usually I soak the part being covered with the red bottle stuff (I can't remember which is set or sol), then get the decal on, and soak it once again with the both some sol and set, and I hit it with some heat and a q-tip til dry, then I usually repeat the process as needed...
