Fidelity to the original livery

Decal Station is a well-established reference among model and slot enthusiasts seeking to accurately reproduce real competition decorations. Their decals are printed with high-resolution inks that precisely respect the colours, logos, and typography of the original vehicle, which is particularly demanding in the livery of the M4 GT3, with its contrasts and sponsors characteristic of the BMW Motorsport programme in the WEC 2024.

Compatibility and application

This set is specifically designed for the Sideways base of the BMW M4 GT3. Before applying the decals, we recommend:

1. Preparing the body with a primer or gloss lacquer base to facilitate adhesion.
2. Carefully trimming each decal, leaving the minimum possible margin.
3. Soaking the decal in lukewarm water for the seconds indicated by the manufacturer.
4. Sliding it onto the body and adjusting its position carefully.
5. Removing excess water with a soft cloth, from the inside out.
6. Applying a fixer or protective varnish once dry to prolong durability.

For the final varnishing, brands like Vallejo, Tamiya, or Kaleido offer glossy and satin finishes compatible with this type of work.

• Collectors looking to customise their Sideways BMW M4 GT3 with a real winning livery.
• Slot enthusiasts wanting to take a faithful replica of the WEC 2024 competition to the track.
• Modellers working on dioramas or display cases focused on contemporary endurance motorsport.
