Estes Apollo Little Joe II Build, Part 43, Vertical UNITED STATES Decal





When piecing together the long decal pay close attention to the spacing between the A and the T. That's the same amount of spacing you want between the bottom of the T and the top of the E

The only place where I couldn't form the decal with the Q-tip tip was at the top of the raised horizontal band near the bottom of the T.
Before the decal was dry I cut small slits and then used the damp Q-tip to work the air out.





Looking from the bottom up you can see how well the decals conformed into the corrugations.

I had some Micro Sol handy but didn't need it! I don't like using solvents unless I have to.
