Howdy ya'll

I'm just buying some decals off Chris, and would like to know, where can I get decal setter from in Britain? They are the decals to go onto the firebox

Many thanks in advance

James

Hiya James.

The stuff I used, courtesy of Chris, is Mr Mark Setter. That's all I can tell you as the rest is in Japanese .

But any hobby shop, that sells models should have it. I couldn't get it, cos our local hobby shop is crap, and a nearby hobby shop is in a town which when you drive through you risk getting a rock or brick thrown through the car window

I put put the setter on about a week after applying decal, but before baking. Ideally, do it about 30mins to an hour after applying the decal, making sure you cover the edges

Hope that helps
