I've got an old Quartzo 935 model where some of the decal are coming off any recommendations for repairing this?



It's the decal on the sill, but on the other side, it's lifted off completely.

Thanks, I was advised to use acrylic varnish.

I did find this on the Grand Prix Models web site Micro Liquid Decal Film by Microscale.

I am tempted to try building a few resin kits there are some models I want that you can't buy ready built.

I'll buy some Klear and decal film (and probably lots of other stuff as well...)

You'll have to spend quite a bit on EBay to get genuine Klear; the original formula isn't available.
I was gong to order from Grand Prix models, https://www.grandprixmodels.com/MSKK-Micro-Kristal...

You're not kidding about price £54 for 500ml original bottle, found somebody selling 30ml for £2.25 (£4 p&p) will see what it's like.

Good idea but a lot of decal paper for a small decal.

I paid £1 per A 4 sheet.
Have you got a link? Can think of other decals to make.
