Decals as they apply faster than dry transfers. But only so long as the numbers are printed on a decal sheet that includes a coat of the body color. (The same princible as accurail) I have done my fair shair of decaling in the past and I find that if that color coat is not applied, hiding the decal film is a royal pain in the but. <br /> <br />I have also used my fair share of dry transfers. So here is a tip for all those wondering why they cant seem to get them work. To get them to stick propler, after removing them from the carrier sheet, one needs to go over them with the fixer sheet, (That funny piece of tissiue paper provided in the package). This works the tranfer into the surface of the model and provides a protective layer for the dry transfer until a clear coat can be applied. <br /> <br />I hope I have been helpful today.
