Anyway interesting idea and tehnic. I never used this type of decals befor but now i have two Tamiya kits they are waiting to be ansambled...
The Testor's brand showed brush strokes, I paint the entire side wall. This must be done with the wheel in the tire because bendind the tire to get the wheel in causes the paint to crack. I also scrub the tire thorughly before applying anything.
