Microsol dissolves tamiya acrylic?

Just a heads up. I painted my window trims with Tamiya Acrylic flat black (XF-1), let it dry about 2 hours, and then started decalling some complex curves next to the trim. The microsol seems to have stripped the black paint, then, through capillary action, sucked it all up under the decal. It's now visible under the decal. (White car, so black under a decal really stands out). I think I'm going to try to soak under the decal with microsol, then use a paper towel and draw out the microsol with the black paint again, taking care not to damage the soft decals.

Anybody else experienced this before?
