Title: Decals lozenge
Post by: Beau Minnick on October 14, 2013, 05:53:47 PM

I'm am interested in two questions about lozenge decals.  1) Does anyone know where to buy Aviattic's products?  2) I see on the Nordland site Wood and Wire has transparent base lozenge decals.  Have these been released yet?  If so again does anyone have an idea where to get them?  Nordland is the only place I've seen them and they seem to be out of stock.  Thanks for any help.

Thanks for the responses  Richard I've saved you ebay site for Aviattics.  Vladimir what kind of Gunze clear coat do you suggest for you decals?   Gunze not being supper easy to get here in the U.S. these days but I do have a sources.  Again guys thanks for the help from an armor modeler dipping his toes into WW1 aviation.

Hi Beau,

Varnish used only for big sets, Fokker, Albatros etc. For clasic Lozenge no. Varnish solidifies decals. Used Tamiya, Vallejo, Misterkit, Life Color etc, only acryl varnish. 2 parts thinner:1 part varnish. Weak one or two layers.

Cheers,

Vladimir

Thanks Vladimir since I will be doing the first one on a DVII.  My local hobby shop carries Tamiya, Vallejo and Life Color , so that is covered.
