Application Tips
To achieve the best results with waterslide decals, keep these steps in mind:
- Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and sealed with a satin or gloss varnish (Vallejo, Tamiya, or similar).
- Trim the decal leaving the minimum film margin possible.
- Soak for about 15-20 seconds in lukewarm water until it slides easily off the paper.
- Place the decal in the desired position and remove excess water with a cotton swab or soft cloth.
- Once dry, apply a finishing varnish (matte, satin, or gloss according to your preference) to integrate and protect the decal.
Frequently Asked Questions
What scale is this decal compatible with?
Atalaya Decals does not specify a single scale for this reference. Check the dimensions of the design on the packaging to assess its suitability for your specific model.
Do I need to varnish the surface before applying the decal?
Yes, applying a coat of satin or gloss varnish before placing the decal prevents the "silvering" effect (air bubbles that make the decal film visible) and significantly improves adhesion.
Can I use it on airbrushed plastic bodies?
Of course. As long as the paint is fully cured and you have applied an intermediate coat of varnish, the decal adheres well to airbrush paints from brands like Vallejo, Kaleido, or Tamiya.
Is it possible to reposition it once placed?
With waterslide decals, there is a small margin for repositioning while the decal is still wet. Once the water evaporates, the adhesion is permanent, so it is advisable to place it calmly and precisely.
