    I Received two small bottles of the decal solutions. 1. Is the adhesion promoter, and 2. Is a setting solution to be used when you have a decal that isnt adhering properly, or setting properly around curves, seams, et cetera. I use this as little as possible since Ive never had issues after applying decals except when you might have a decal that is not bonding to the model properly around the edge, or not conforming properly leaving wrinkles, et cetera. Nice little addition to add to your hobby supplies for those Just in case moments when you might need to use it. More than enough solutions to last awhile. Great price, and delivery.

    This Set softens stiff decals to conform with curved surfaces without destroying all the adhesive. To be sure the decal does not move use a clear coat over it. This stuff must contain a lot of ascetic acid because it sure smells like it.

    Hes started applying decals to his Black Templar Space Marines right away. I love seeing him really get into his hobby, so this decal setting solution just helps polish off the final touches to his models.

    After a YouTube video or two showing me how to use it properly, first use of the product is a success. Specifically an Ultramarine shoulder pauldron with a chapter symbol from the transfer sheet that came with the models. After nudging the symbol in place and sealing it on it looks clean and like it was painted on with no bubbles or bulges.

    I would never attach a decal without this stuff. They soften the decal, making it look painted on. Can be a little tricky to keep the decal in place while applying, so experiment a bit before you apply it to your pet project.

    Y’all- I was sent VINEGAR and WATER!!! I just tried to use this product and I’m not even kidding when I say one was straight up vinegar and the other plain water. This completely RUINED the decals! My whole project is destroyed. Beyond pissed.. so do not get scammed and buy this product.

Micro Set is a very versatile decal setting solution that does several things to Microscale Decals to improve application. Micro Set should be applied to the surface of the model where you will be sliding the decal off the paper backing. Micro Set prepares the surface with special wetting agents that cut the oils in new paint and converts the adhesive on the back of the decal to a stronger and longer lasting one. In addition, Micro Set slightly softens the decal film to make it more flexible so that it will conform better to the model"s surface. Better adhesion of the decal to the model prevents tiny air bubbles from forming and results in an invisible carrier film for the so-called "painted on look." To apply Micro Set: Use a soft flat artist"s brush and apply Micro Set where you are going to apply the decal. Then slide the decal off the backing paper using a small pointed tip synthetic bristle brush to carefully position the decal in its proper position. Blot the decal carefully with a tissue or paper toweling, being careful not to disturb its position. Allow the decal to dry overnight. It will then be ready for a protective coat of Micro Coat Flat, Satin or Gloss.

Micro Sol setting solution is for the most difficult irregular surfaces to be found on models. It completely softens the Microscale Decal, allowing it to drape down onto the surface of the model, conforming perfectly to surface irregularities without distortion. The most amazing results in seemingly impossible places are possible because Micro Sol actually makes the decal part of the painted surface. For that reason, you should coat Micro Sol on for only a few seconds and then leave it alone. It does the work. Do not touch until the decal has dried, as the decal is very soft at this stage and could be easily damaged. For the best results, first apply Micro Sol to prepare the surface and enhance the adhesive. Make sure the surface is free of particles that could get under the decal"s film and
