Green Stuff World DECAL FIXER Liquid - 17ml is a specialized chemical solution developed by Green Stuff World, designed to enhance the application process of water-slide decals in scale modeling. This product, supplied in a 17 ml bottle, is a crucial tool for modelers aiming for a perfect finish on the details of their models and miniatures.
Product Features
DECAL FIXER is a liquid that significantly simplifies the decal application process, ensuring excellent adhesion and a natural appearance on the model's surface.
Main Application: Softens water-slide decals, allowing them to perfectly conform to complex shapes, uneven surfaces, and details such as rivets or panel lines.
Improved Adhesion: Increases decal adhesion to the surface, effectively minimizing the risk of air bubbles forming under the decal and eliminating the "silvering" effect, which manifests as visible, matte air pockets under transparent parts of the decal.
Precise Formula: A specially developed chemical composition ensures controlled and safe softening of the decal without the risk of damage or dissolution.
Capacity: 17 ml, guaranteeing efficiency and a sufficient quantity for numerous modeling projects. The bottle is equipped with a convenient applicator or cap for precise dispensing.
Finish: Transparent and neutral once dry, it does not alter the color or sheen of the surface, allowing the intended final effect of the model to be preserved.
Usage and Compatibility
DECAL FIXER liquid from Green Stuff World is compatible with most standard water-slide decals available on the modeling market. It can be safely used on various materials and model types, including:
For optimal results, the product should be applied to a dry, painted model surface. After the applied decal and liquid have completely dried, it is recommended to protect the entire area with an appropriate model varnish (matte, semi-gloss, or gloss) for durability and a consistent finish.
Directions for Use (Recommendations)
Ensure the model surface where the decal will be applied is clean, dry, and degreased.
Using a brush, apply a thin layer of DECAL FIXER liquid to the area where the decal will be placed.
Transfer the water-soaked decal onto the wet surface with the liquid, gently positioning it.
Allow the liquid to work; the decal will soften and begin to conform to the surface shape. You can gently press it with a soft brush or cotton swab to remove excess liquid and air bubbles.
Allow the model to completely dry for several hours before applying a protective varnish layer or proceeding to further finishing stages.
