Need decal advise

[shafer]

I purchased a petty 84 pontiac from the monogram ledgens series , and found that the decals are severely cracked. especically the red. Before any cutting is to begin I have shot some clear coat on them to hold them together in 1 piece. (This will work , I've done this before) but the cracks will still show after they are installed. what do you guys think about me brush painting all those decals and then re clearing before installation to eliminate the cracks, or do you think they may be way too far gone and I need to pray one of you guys might donate me a set.
