[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by SpaceMouse</i> <br /><br />Okay, <br /> <br />I haven't done decals since I was a teenager and I've never done a dry transfer. What is a dry transfer and how do you put it on? <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Sorry Chip, I skimmed the topic title, Dry Transfer is pretty much were you would hold the "decal" in position on the object, and then take a stylus or other thin/blunt pen like tool and just rub back and forth and it transfers from the sheet to the object. Dry Transfer sheets are more plastic like, decal are more of a paper with a thin film on them with the lettering/graphic. Woodland Scenics is dry transfer type stuff. <br /> <br />You did find a interesting site, which now leads me to wonder, if a person can make dry transfers? I realize you would have to reverse the lettering/graphic but, hmm, now I am wondering. <br /> <br />Any of that make sense?
