Just finished painting my first fixer upper, a tin tank car and am ready for decals. Can dry transfers be left bear or must they be clear coated? Thanks, Denny

Burnish down and then you can clear coat to protect the decal.

When everything else fails, play dead

Either is fine, but a coat of clear will protect them. I'd recommend it.

Jim, just saw your train photo page, very nice! I still run mine on the floor, Stand tall Chief Eagles! I'm trying to get one of my boys married so I can have a room for a layout Big Smile [:D]

One of these days I'll post photos.

Thanks, Denny. Speaking of photos, please share some with us once your tank car is completed.
