"Jennings
I have asked you this question on three different forums and still no response. It seems you are only interested in selling your decals but not helping modellers to actually use them. Are you listening to your customers? I am asking nicely:
Do your decals need a clear coat before they are applied?
I would appreciate the courtesy of a response"
Not Jennings, but I thought I would try and help. I have made my own decals with an ALPS printer, an inkjet, and with a laser printer. In my experience, a clear coat is not required with either the ALPS or laser printed decals, but they are more delicate than screen printed so a clear coat can help with protecting them, if desired. I definitely recommend a clear coat after application, just like any other decal. Never hurts to do a trial run with some extras to see how they perform, either.
