Estes Saturn V #1969 Build, Part 49, Decals Part B

For consistent placement of the A, B, C, & D fin decals -
TIP: Make a template from card stock.
Trace around a fin leaving some area on the outside for a "handle". Trace on both sides for decal placement on the other side of the fin.
Set the decal in place, check the alignment with the template.
This TIP is based on a template part supplied in the old Centuri kit.

Some of the kit decals are small!
Soak in shallow water and float the decal on the surface. Leaving the decal floating on the surface makes it easier to pick up after soaking.
TIP: Tweezers are a big help placing the decal in the water and removing it.

The curved UNITED STATES decals go on the conical CM capsule.

The straight UNITED STATES decals go on the side of the service module tube.

Here's a moot point - 
TIP: The "I" in the vertical UNITED STATES decal is a little off center.
I placed the decal. Using a single edge razor blade, the "I" was cut above and below it. Don't cut into the paint, just score through the decal
Using my thumb, the "I" was slid over while the decal was still wet and pliable. It doesn't take a large move to center the "I".
