Echelon Fine Details D356214 1/35 Syrian AFVs (Syrian Civil War 2011) Decals Part 1: BMP-1, BMP-2, 2S1 and 2S3

Type: water-slide decals

Set of markings covering BMP-1, BMP-2s, 2S1 (with interesting markings and camouflage) and 2S3s in the Syrian civil war. The marking on the search light covers of the all-sand BMP-2s can also be used on T-72AVs in the same conflict (they are all from the same-sized stencil).

How to apply water-slide decals:
1. Preparation: to achieve better result, a gloss or semi-gloss coat is very important. It will make a smooth layer which the decals will suction to and make it much easier to apply and set them.
2. Cut out the decal you need (do it on cutting mat)
3. Grab the decal with tweezers, place it on the surface of the water and leave it for about 20 seconds.
4. Remove the decal from the water and place it on paper towel to remove any excess water.
5. Apply decal solution to the part where the decal is to be placed.
6. Slide the decal off the backing paper on to the model. Using a paint brush or cotton bud is a good way to do this without damaging the decal.
7. Use the brush, knife or cotton bud to position the decal. Using your paper towel, gently dab the decal and soak up the excess water (decal softener is also recommended at this stage. After applying softener, the decal will suction to the part and flatten out smooth.)
8. When the decal is completely dry, give another coat of varnish or Klear/Future to seal it.
