Decal Fix on the Cobalt Orange Part 2


Start with the easiest decals to back up with the white - the black outlined triangles that go on the fins.
That black edge will cover up the edges of the white triangle set down underneath.
I'm cutting one of the extras inside the thick black outline to make a template for the white decal.





Take your template and set it on the dried, white decal sheet.

Cut around the outside of the template. Make four white triangles.




You can discard the template decal, it's to small to be used now.

Cut out the small triangles outside of the border. This gives you a clear edge around the decal which helps hold down the raised decal.
This outside decal will be slightly raised above the surface with the white layer underneath.






The white (paint) decal triangle is applied to the fin. Be sure it is straight, you won't be able to move the background when the printed decal is on top of it.

The inset picture shows the yellow and black ink jet decal over the white.
