Micro Sol Setting Solution, 1 oz

As advertised it completely softens the Decals, allowing it to drape down onto the surface of the model, conforming perfectly to surface irregularities without distortion. Micro Sol actually makes the decal part of the painted surface, obviously it depends on the quality of the decal, if its bad or below average, don't expect miracles. For the best results, first apply Micro Sol to prepare the surface and enhance the adhesive, Then put the decal, Then, when everything is dry enough that the decal will not move easily, apply Micro Sol with a small flat brush, and then leave it alone. It does the work. Do not touch until the decal has dried, as the decal is very soft at this stage and could be easily damaged, or it could move from the correct position. One application is enough in most cases but, some irregular surfaces require more applications of Micro Sol. I work with 1/72 model kits, and this product became essential for me.

This is an absolute MUST have for anyone applying waterslide decals to uneven surfaces. It helps the decal to soften and adhere around details.

Along with Micro Set, if you do even a little bit of water slide decal work, you want this on your workbench. Micro Sol is what you use to soften decals and help them conform to irregular surfaces of your model. If a single application of Micro Sol doesn't work, you can apply it several more times for greater decal-softening effect. Micro Sol works great, but there are stronger (hotter) softening solutions out there to consider. But this should work 98% of the time.
