Supplied Tools and Equipment
APPLYING THE DECALS
The main decals for your model have been applied at the
factory. Additional decals are printed on self-adhesive
clear mylar and are die-cut for easy removal. Use a hobby
knife to lift the corner of a decal and lift it from the
backing. To apply the decals, place one end down, hold
the other end up, and gradually smooth the decal down
with your finger as you go. This will prevent air bubbles.
Placing both ends of the decal down and then trying to
smooth it out will result in air pockets.
Look at the photos on the box for typical decal placement.
