Clear decal paper
Can someone please tell me where to get some blank clear decal paper? I was hoping some place other than a hobby shop.
Thanks

You want vinyl correct? OfficeMax has decal sheets that arent waterslide but you'll need some acrylic spray to make it clear.

not really...
it's not that difficult provided you're patient during the creation of your decal...
give it a half-hour or so after printing and at least 5 hours after spraying a good gloss of decal bonder (using proper spray technique of course)
but then to apply:
1) cut them out close to your design (about 1/16" away from design if possible)
2) just dip the entire decal (don't try and submerge it for long)
3) let the decal backing soak for 30 seconds on your workspace
4) try and slide the decal slightly upward the backing (you just want it to move)
5) using a wet paintbrush, slide the decal on to your surface and smooth it out from the center using that paint brush (dipping the brush regularly)
if your decal bonded well enough the paintbrush won't scrape away the ink...
i'm a big fan waterslide decals
