Microscale Decal Finishing Products.

  Micro Set

Micro Set is a very versatile decal setting solution that does several things to the Microscale Decals to improve application. Micro Set should be applied to the surface of the model where you will be sliding off the decal. Micro Set prepares the surface with special wetting agents that cuts the oils in new paint and converts the adhesive on the back of the decal to a stronger and more lasting one. And finally, Micro Set slightly softens the decals film to make it more flexible so that it can conform better to the model's surface. Better adhesion by the decal to the model prevents tiny air bells from occurring and results in an invisible carrier film or the so called 'painted on look'.
   
  Micro Sol

Micro Sol setting solution is for the most difficult irregular surfaces you find on models. It completely softens the Microscale Decal allowing it to drape down onto the surface of the model conforming perfectly and without distortion. You can get the most amazing results in seemingly impossible places, because Micro Sol actually makes the decal part of the paint. 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 dry as the decal is very soft at this stage and could be easily damaged.
   
  Micro Coat. "Gloss", "Satin" or "Flat/Matt" Finish. Gloss, Satin & Flat Varnishes
The Micro Coat finishes are more than just a pretty look. This is one tough finish, and a real breakthrough in a modern formulation of water reducible acrylic resin. For models that get a lot of handling this is the answer. Even the Micro Coat Flat and Micro Coat Satin continue to look like new after a great deal of handling. One of the main reasons for the Micro Coat finishes is that they are the ideal way to be sure that your Microscale Decals perform up to their potential for realism. Micro Coat Clear gives you a 'wet look' shine that replicates the new synthetic paint used on the real thing. It is also the answer for a glossy base necessary for decaling. All the Micro Coat Finishes use the same water clear acrylic resin, which is tough and flexible and adheres strongly to paint and plastic. It is rated to last at least twenty years under ordinary conditions, for models this should be forever.
   
  Micro Krystal Klear

If there was ever a modellers secret, this is it. Micro Krystal Klear can do so many things, you will not believe that any product can make such a big difference in the appearance of your models. First, Micro Krystal Klear is a liquid that can be used to form very real looking small windows up to about 1/4" in size. It is also an adhesive for mounting clear plastic parts, windows, etc. on your models. it can be used to make lens both clear and coloured with the addition of a little food colouring. What really makes a remarkable difference in your models is the simple fact that the clear parts can be joined to the painted parts with a completely clear adhesive. What this means is that you do not have to mask around the clear parts, something that is rarely completely successful anyway. And the sills which are painted can be seen through the clear Micro Krystal Klear for the most realistic looking windows you will see on a model. And what the pros like best, it is fast and easy and it stays clear. It cleans-up with water while wet, and is waterproof when dry. You can tell when it is dry because it turns from milky white to clear. And if that were not enough, if you need a super strong and flexible adhesive for wood, plastic, paper or most combinations of dissimilar materials this is a handy thing to have. It's great

Notes on Applying Water Slide Decals

  • Surface to be decaled must be painted and have a gloss finish.
     
  • Work only on one side of the model at a time. Allow at least 3 hours before decaling the other side.
     
  • Cut each decal from the sheet only as needed, holding the decal with tweezers, dip the decal into water for a few seconds, do not let the decal float off the backing sheet.
     
  • Position the decal in to a position adjacent to the area to be decaled and slide the decal into position with a soft Brush. A little deposit may appear when sliding the decal off the backing sheet. This will wash away with a little water.
     
  • When the decal is in the desired position, use a soft cloth to dry the decal into position. If the decal position needs to be adjusted, apply a little water, then reposition using the soft Brush.
     
  • Once all the decaling is complete on one side of a car, apply Microscale Micro Set (Blue Label) to each decal. This will assist the decal to conform to the model surface.
     
  • If after 24 hours the decal has not conformed to any Irregular feature on the model, apply Microscale Micro Sol (Red Label) to the desired area.
     
  • Allow the model to dry for 24 hours. Using a soft Brush, wash the decal with water, this will remove any deposits & dried decal solution.
     
  • Allow the model to dry for at least 48 hours, then apply a coat of suitable varnish or weathering paint to achieve the desired finish.

 

 

Hints on Applying Locomotive Lining.

  • When starting to line a panel, start with the bottom left corner, and apply a corner with two long lengths of lines, one running most of the length along the bottom of the side (finishing approx. 15mm from the panel edge), and the other running up most of the height of the side (again finishing 15mm from the panel edge). Align these lengths of lining with their respective edges. Repeat this with the upper right hand corner. Dry the decals and apply Micro Set.
     
  • Allow this area of the model to dry for 24 hours.
     
  • Now cut from the decal sheet a corner with two 20mm lengths of lining and place this dry into position in the top left and bottom right of the panel. Check the fit and trim the lining to fit the remaining space, ensuring a slight over lap. Now wet the decal and apply as before, overlapping the lining to form a continuous line.
