Setup: Application Preparation

Before applying the decals, ensure the surface is properly prepared to achieve optimal adhesion and appearance.

  1. Pulisci la superficie: Thoroughly clean the area where the decal will be applied. Use a mild soap and water solution or an appropriate model-safe cleaner. Ensure the surface is free of dust, grease, oil, and fingerprints. Allow the surface to dry completely.
  2. Raccogli strumenti: Prepare the necessary tools: a pair of sharp scissors or a hobby knife, a soft cloth or squeegee, and optionally, masking tape for positioning.
  3. Inspect Decals: Carefully inspect the decal sheet for any imperfections. Identify the specific decals you intend to use.
  4. Pre-cut (Optional): If the decals are not pre-cut, carefully cut around the desired decal using sharp scissors or a hobby knife, leaving a small margin around the design.

Operating: Decal Application Process

Follow these steps for precise and effective decal application.

  1. Posizionamento: Gently peel the decal from its backing sheet. For larger decals, it may be helpful to peel only a small section first. Carefully align the decal on the desired surface. You may use masking tape to temporarily hold one edge in place for precise alignment.
  2. Applicazione: Once positioned, slowly press the decal onto the surface, working from one edge to the other. Use a soft cloth or squeegee to smooth out the decal, applying gentle, even pressure to remove any air bubbles. Work outwards from the center of the decal.
  3. Rimozione delle bolle d'aria: If air bubbles appear, gently lift the nearest edge of the decal and re-apply, smoothing it down. For stubborn small bubbles, a very fine needle can be used to carefully prick the bubble, then smooth it out.
  4. Adesione finale: Once the decal is fully applied and smoothed, press firmly over the entire decal with a soft cloth to ensure complete adhesion.
  5. Tempo di asciugatura: Allow the decals to cure for at least 24 hours before handling the decaled surface extensively or exposing it to moisture.

Manutenzione

Proper care will help maintain the longevity and appearance of your applied decals.

  • Pulizia: When cleaning the decaled surface, use a soft, damp cloth and mild cleaning agents. Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or excessive scrubbing directly on the decals, as this can damage them.
  • Protezione: Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures, which can cause decals to fade or peel over time. If the model is stored, consider a protective cover.
  • Gestione: Handle the decaled areas with care to prevent scratching or peeling.
