HUMBROL Decal Fix 125ml is a specialized liquid created for modelers who want to achieve perfect results when applying decals. This preparation effectively prevents the formation of unsightly air bubbles under the decals and minimizes "silvering," ensuring their ideal adhesion to the model's surface. Thanks to its properties, Decal Fix can also be used for pre-cleaning and preparing areas where decals are to be applied, which increases their adhesion and durability.
Key Applications and Benefits
HUMBROL Decal Fix is designed to streamline the decal application process, regardless of the complexity of the design or surface shape. Its main applications and benefits include:
Elimination of Air Bubbles: The liquid's formula facilitates the removal of trapped air from under the decal, ensuring a smooth and uniform surface without defects.
Preventing "Silvering": It reduces the silvering effect of transparent decal parts, making them look like an integral part of the paintwork, blending into the model's surface.
Improved Adhesion: Increases the adhesion of decals to uneven, rounded, or porous model surfaces, minimizing the risk of peeling or wrinkling.
Surface Preparation: It can be used for gentle cleaning of the surface before applying the decal, which is crucial for durable and aesthetic adhesion.
Technical Features and Compatibility
Capacity: 125 ml – an economical package ensuring efficient and long-lasting use.
Consistency: Low-viscosity liquid, easy for precise brush application on small and large surfaces.
Safety: The liquid's formula is safe for most types of hobby paints, including acrylics, enamels, and clear coats. It does not cause surface damage or dissolve paint coatings.
Versatility: The product is compatible with decals from most manufacturers and with models made from various materials, such as polystyrene (plastic), resin, metal, or wood.
How to Use
For optimal results, it is recommended to apply a thin layer of HUMBROL Decal Fix to the model's surface where the decal is to be placed. After placing the decal on the wet layer of liquid, gently press it down with a soft brush or cotton swab to remove excess water and air. This liquid also aids in softening the decals, which facilitates their perfect conformity to all details, recesses, and raised areas on the model's surface.
Jeśli chodzi o Humbrol DecalFix to moje zdanie jest zdecydowanie negatywne. Strasznie słaby, mimo położenia trzech porcji płynu na kalkę po jej nałożeniu na model. Kupując ten produkt miałem nadzieję na dużo lepszy efekt. A tu praktycznie nie ma żadnego efektu. Zdecydowanie nie polecam, według mnie lepiej dołożyć i kupić bardzo dobre płyny: micro set i micro sol.
