archybean Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 im currently working on the revell 747/space shuttle combo, and had some problems with the decals. they look great on the paper, no yellow at all...but after putting them in water and they come loose, so does some of the backing paper. i assume the glue bonded to the paper and pulled it off? wasnt a problem on the shuttle, as the white of the model hid the paper...but im using aluminum foil on the 747, and its going to show like crazy. anybody have ideas?

volzj Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Try using hot water, it might do a better job separating the paper from the adhesive. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MattC Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 Got to agree, hot water will do the trick. If you add a couple of drops of washing up liquid, that sometimes helps too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
