DMC Decals query?

Hello all,Has anyone in this forum used DMC Decals(someone obviously has)?
My couple of questions are short and sweet.
Do you get the color bleeding through on white decals at all and how are the decals for settling on the kit(are they brittle? Do they conform to the contours easily)?
My main concern is the bleed through,I just bought 'Eschmann Stahl' decals for the Mercedes CLK DTM kit and have never used DMC Decals before with the bleed though being my only concern because the car is a royal blue and everyone knowing this could be the make or break of your kit
Thanks for the input guys.

Does anyone have a reliable source for them now? I am interested in a couple of their new Porsche decals.

They are generally very good with little or no bleeding on (white on dark surfaces) and easily conforms to contours with just a dab of Micro Sol. I won't recommend anything stronger as the decals are quite thin.

Shouldn't be a problem, although I don't have tried these decals, but a lot of the others 1990's DTM Mercedes cars

Re: DMC Decals query?

good design quality, VERY bad shelf-life !
if you buy them, hurry to apply them and to clear coat them as the white color always becomes yellow...
I keep all my decals separately from the kit, in a file, no sun, no wet conditions...
