Microscale BMF129 Micro Set Decal Setting Solution 1FlOz

Works as promised.

Although this works ok by itself, it works outstanding with its partner MicroSol! I use this for water slide decals on plastic models. Apply this to the surface first and it helps you to slide the decal into place. Once in place, dab the decal with a cotton swab to wic away any excess, let dry for a minute or so and then apply MicroSol. This will soften the decal so it will conform to any surface texture on your model. Panel lines, rivets etc. It really does give your decals that painted on look. I recently completed a Blue Angels A-4F and used CamPro after market decals. These decals are rich in color and very vibrant. To acheive this they are made a little thick making this product essential to getting the decals to conform to irregular surfaces. With the help of a hairdryer and Micro Set and Micro Sol, my decals came out perfect!

if you are gonna use waterslide decals this is truly a must. good value and will make you decals look great. it also makes the decal stick really well. it really is easy to use and will make you A game sparkle.

A must have for any model builders using waterslide decals. Makes application easy and allows the decals to adhere to the model surface much better than water alone. Also helps prevent air bubbles on large decals and it helps keep the decal from tearing.

Softens the decal and makes it form into the door details and such for hot wheels. Use it sparingly and take your time. Will be ordering more soon.

I've never bought this product before, and I used in for only one purpose, putting inkjet printed decals on a hard hat. I can't say that it helped much, but I don't know. I used this followed by Micro Sol setting solution, which again may have helped, but I don't know. I think the issue here is that the inkjet decals require a coating or two of acrylic. This protects the decal from smearing, but it may also adds a certain amount of rigidity which may not be conducive to the applications of Micro Set and Micro Sol solutions. In any case, the sellers of the inkjet decal paper never endorsed these products. I do have a feeling the Micro Set may have helped seat the decals and the Micro Sol may have helped the decal conform to the rounded surface. This may be a 5 star product with the commercial or laser printed decals, but I don't know. This is an update: After using this product to place decals on a hard hat, everything seemed to work fine. However, over a period of weeks, there were spots in the decal where the ink had faded or disappeared. Since the hard hat was never exposed to any wetness, I can conclude the acidic (very week)solution caused the ink to disappear. It did seat the decal nicely however. If you are using ink jet printed decals, I would not recommend using these solutions.

Worked like a charm, took me three tries to figure it out but love using it

Absolute must have with its twin, microset. Use in 2 layers.
