Anyone used these decals? I tried rubbing the decals on plastic model and would not transfer. What's the secret? Thanks, Chris

I use a wooden pencil to rub the decals into the model no problem

Watch the tutorial vids from their website and highly recommend getting a wooden cuticle pusher to serve as the burnishing tool.

Takes a little practice to get the pressure right, but once you get it it becomes pretty easy.

Thanks, will give it another try.

I’ve used these before on both 1/32 and 1/18 scale models. Using a flat “tool” to press them on is best; the flat tool could be a craft stick, balsawood, etc. Personally, despite success applying the Archer Transfer markings, I’m still not completely sold on the dry-transfer items as opposed to water-slide decals.
