And them last decals in place and bucket loads of decalsoftener, punctured along the rivets to get that damt decal down.....now it is really melted in to the paint lol..all is clearcoated...all them rivets are there....thinking of getting a mask cutter printer....so i can cut them letters to.... next stop..prepare wash....got to figure wich tone in that, it is a clean machine....just want to make them pop out...ill figure it out...that camo color is special, so got to get that wash right that it fits with the whole.... /Mal /Mal Edited February 7, 2015 by Mal_Belford Whitey, Sparzanza and Zero77 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
