VMS Decal Set & Fix 2 x 30ml Bundle
VMS Decal Set & Fix 2 x 30ml Bundle
This
classic solution includes two separate fluids that will get the job
done for you in the proven way. Fantastic adhesion achieved with
proprietary adhesive formulation thanks to the Set & Fix fluid and
conformity to model shape thanks to the Softener fluid.
Use:
Apply the Set & Fix fluid over target area and then apply the
decal. Squeeze excessive fluid out and wipe it away with a brush soaked
with water. To mould the decal apply VMS Decal Softener over the decal
and wait 1-3 minutes. The decal will soften and adjust to the surface of
the model. You can use acotton bud to help the decal conform to the
surface, perform gentle tapping motion. Do not get the softening fluid
on the paint job as it can dissolve the paint (true for any softening
fluid brand). If the paint reacts with the softener simply introduce a
bit of water to neutralise the softener and leave the paint be, it will
revert to its original state. After 24h seal the decal using VMS Varnish
HD. Due to the multitude of decals on the market and varying thickness
of carrier films always check if the softener is compatible on a spare
decal first!
Combine with: Decals
Recommended techniques: Brush
Available volumes: 2 x 30 ml dropper bottle
Decals need two things: an adhesive which will help them stick to the
model better (especially true for bare plastic) and softening agent
which will mould the decals to the surface. This classic decal bundle
will enable you to cope with any type of decals and surface!

How to use the fluids?
Apply
the Set & Fix fluid over target area and then apply the decal.
Squeeze excessive fluid out and wipe it away with a brush soaked with
water. To mould the decal apply VMS Decal Softener over the decal and
wait 1-3 minutes. The decal will soften and adjust to the surface of the

How effective is the fluid?
One model
requires around 0.5-1 ml of fluid depending on the decal amount, bottle
hold 2 x 30 ml. You will be able to finish around 30-60 1/35 scale
models before you run out of the product.
What agent to use to clean brushes?
Plain water is enough to clean the brushes.
How long do I need to wait before I can varnish my model?
Wait 24h - the decal will achieve the best fit over this time.
Do I need to use gloss varnish before applying decals (so the can be positioned better)?
Our decal
fluid is formulated to let the decal slide over surface without the need
for a gloss undercoat but you can still do that if you like, there are
no restrictions.
The paint reacted when the decal softener fluid was applied.
We advise
applying the fluid over properly cured layers of paint (7+ days old).
Make sure the fluid is applied over the decal only. If the fluid gets on
the paint just neutralise it using a brush soaked with water and wipe
away and leave the pant to dry it will regain it's normal look.
Decal has broken down into small pieces.
Makes sure
your decals are compatible with the fluid using a spare decal. If the
softener is too strong you can dilute it with water in 1:1 or 1:2 (water
to softner) ratio and still use the fluid with your decals. This
problem is rare though.
