mcferreira100 Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 My next tank I want to do a MS Primer, Base coat and Clear coat over it. This will be my first time doing it this way as I`ve only used 2K paints so far. I was wanting to apply decals then clear coat over them. I`m having rather expensive vinyl decals made and don`t want to ruin them. So my question has anybody had experience doing this..can the paint damage the decals?..would appreciate any tips so I don`t make a mess of it?

slice Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 You could ask your decal supplier if you could have an off-cut to test it on, he might be ok with that. One of the members on here did just what your saying and she had real problems with the vinyl crinkling up under the clear coat. Someone on here will be along with more advice soon. It was Sacha I think that had this problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
