I'm designing custom decals for a shortline that will interchange with my Penn Central themed layout. I used microscale paper sprayed with testor's dulcote as recommended to facilitate successful printing on my ink jet printer. The sheet came out beautifully. I understand that the dulcote will make the image run in water so the next step was to apply some Micro Liquid Decal film which I was informed by the instructions would seal the image and make it waterproof when it was time to apply it to the locomotive. I tested a little Liquid Decal Film on a small part of the sheet and the decal color immediately ran. I've looked at some other sources and see there are spray fixitives. I'm guessing that might be the better bet (?) Would any art supply fixiative work or do I need to tread back to the hobby shop and get a specifically for decals product?
Thanks!
