HGW wet transfers

Recommended Posts

I thought after watching reviews on youtube that the HGW rivet sets would be the perfect answer to riveting. I have tried the access panel sets and had no luck at all. The reviews seem to be confused about leaving the paper oversheet on or peeling it off before soaking. I peeled it off as I cant see through it to trim or position them. The first set went on fine but letting it dry overnight when I peeled the "foil" ,which looks like film to me, half the rivets stayed on it and half on the model. The surface was Tamiya fine white primer and quite smooth.  The second set I tried, again removing the paper overcoat, dissolved in the water with the rivets floating off. Am I missing something in these glowing reviews?
