if you are using tamiya gloss spray or mr. super clear on big decals than dont because the decals will crinkle up and will leave on alot of orange pill. i sugest you to use model master gloss and airbrush the car or use dupli color gloss spray paint and spray on the decal lightly about 2 coats. then light lightly sand down the orange pill and go over with the tamiya or mr. super clear gloss spray. hopefully that help man. lates

In any case use light coats. Tamiya clearcoat works fine over decals, not sure for mr. super clear though.

I have been using Mr Colour Super Gloss and I never had any problems. Just make sure your 1st few coats are thin, then let gas out for a few days, then only you can spray on heavy coats.
