[MinichampsCollector]

This is my first post. So hi all!

Ok so some of the decals on my minichamps are peeling usually just along the edges. Is it possible to fix these decals so they can be smooth and not peeling again?

Tell me if this will work?

Apply very very small amount of tamiya decal glue to the body of the car with a very small instrument or toothpick. Then on the top of the decal apply some microset over the decal to soften it and gently apply it over the body of the car.

I dont know if i should be using tamiya decal glue or if microset or microsol and in what order.

Is it possible to get these decals back to they way they once looked? Has anybody in the community had luck in fixing there decals and making them look like new again?

Thanks guys!

On the rare occasion I have had this problem (going back to my kit building days) I would use thinned white glue.
Aroiund five parts water to one part glue.
For persistent 'peelers' I would use a tiny ampount of gloss clear hobby enamel paint - Humbrol or Revell brand tinlets.
Applied using tiny shirt pins - these can be bought in boxes of 100 for very litlle money.
If I have any suspicion that such issues will arise on my 1/18th scale models, I coat them in a thin layer of liquid floor wax with a clean hobby paint brush.

I would just use Microscale Micro Sol. It'll make sure those edges never come up again
