Ive only ever used the Blue bottle SET stuff as that was all i was told i would need as the SOL can soften decals to much and bugger them up
In most cases i brush SET all over the area the decal is going on and try and get it to stick as best as possible. If its not working i drag out the wifes hairdrier to sort it out
This model here would have to be the worse model for being a decal nightmare
The car is sprayed white and everything else is decals
The bumpers used SET and a hair drier and turned out pretty well.
PS...Jay...these pics are just for you as you like them on my steps !!......i kinda agree with you to...lol
