As has alread been said - great model and great website

You say you learnt a lot with this kit after clearoating your decals. Is there anything we should know about? The reason I ask is that I'll soon be clearcoating my 206 WRC and am a bit wary of trashing the decals

I have tryed 2 Clear coat on scrap model: Tamiya and testor.. and I can say Testor is easyer to work and give better result..

the only thing you need, it a smooth surface.. if your decal isn't smooth, it will be hard.. BUT, I had 1 decal not smooth (overheated) the Number on the right side.. and Clear goes over it and it is perfectly smooth now..

So all in all.. wait at leat 1 week after your paint dry.. Wait at least 3 day after decals are apply, and use Testor Clear (one of the best I used... Testor paint sux, but there clear is really good and cheap)

It's easyer than we think

Oh, and when you spray the Testor Clear, don't panic.. it does look rugh.. but after 5 minute or so, it look way better.. and a second coat make a perfect job...
