Lightening Aztec decals...

Post by Apollo Adama »

I'm working on a Nebula Class conversion and I'm near the finish line. I've been using Arthur's Enterprise D Decals printed from my Konica Minolta Magicolor Color Laser Printer. The problem is that they came out a little too dark for my tastes. I'm down to just a few decals left and I'm wondering if anyone can make a suggestion as to what I can spray to lighten these puppies up a tad. I will be finishing the kit with DullCote and that will help but I'm thinking that they might need a little more help than that. This isn't that big of deal but if there's simple fix, I'd love to hear it.

Any suggestions?

Once you seal the decals with a clear coat, you could alway try a thinned, wide area spray of the base coat.
