"Where is the best set of "decals for dummies" instructions that I can follow?"

Well without patting myself on the chest...since I have wrapped the Scaleauto Porsche twice and got a set of "bespoke templates:...
...I guess I could guide you through the process...so....here?

Most of the "specialist tools' you need for doing a good decal job can be easily replaced by general household items.

The few things you might want to source from a hobby shop while you are waiting for you decals to arrive:
Some rolls of Tamiya masking tape, 2mm 6mm and 60mm
Some good quality brushes, sable hair brushes are the best but expensive, a good quality acrylic brushes will do the job as well.
A flask of Alclad waterclear gloss and semi gloss. Great stuff that is non aggressive and can be applied with a regular brush.
A Scalpel holder for blades #11 and #25....and the blades themselves.


to be continued?

with kind regards
Tamar
