look at our homepage. We use inkjet decals for 1:500 scale customs at a rate of 99% with much success. Check the resolution of the prints, they are way better than thermodry prints. Bert |

Yellowing is not up to the decal film you use, but to the final coating. Modern acrylic coates don´t yellow. But sealing will also prevent the colors from turning pale from oxydation.
Naturally you should not expose the models to sunlight or powerful electric light, but who does in this way with his models.... Last edited by CB Customs; 03-22-2007 at 04:34 AM. |
