Lee [;)]Funny, I tried the same thing this weekend. Using the FCSME's logo to make a custom car for use in a display train. I only purchased the Testors paper and bonding spray, and filled a decal sheet with copies of our club logo using Corel Draw. After printing on a Lexmark Z605 printer (As per the directions, plain paper, normal quality)and spraying as per the directions, I installed 2 logo's on an ACF 55 ft hopper. I blotted out all the water and used Walthers Solvaset to seat the decal the rest of the way. It worked fine, after I learned this lesson. Don't use too much Solvaset. Try to get the decal 99% there. The Solveset will get under the cover coat if you use too much, and make the ink bleed. I had to redo one of the logo's twice before I got it right. Now all I have to do is get a Data set and trim the rest of the car out, and it's done! All in all, not a bad product, just takes a little finesse.[:D]
