Model Railroading > Decal RemovalDate: 07/11/21 10:02 Decal Removal Author: jburek What is the best method for safely removing decals without damaging any of the underlying paint - thanks for any advice.

It changes with manufacturers and solutions... Bill Deaver Tehachapi, CA Date: 07/11/21 17:07 Re: Decal Removal Author: sixaxlecentury Even sealed a piece of tape will almost always lift a decal off.
Date: 07/12/21 10:11 Re: Decal Removal Author: jburek Puddled some Solvaset on top of the decals for about 5 minutes & then easily lifted them off with a small brush with no damage to the underlying paint scheme. Worked like a charm. Decals were not yet sealed with dullcoat.
