I'm truly amazed at everyone's results. Well, except yours Ron...that's how I picture mine turning out! All kidding aside, it appears there's a difference in the thickness with the various (I'm assuming) brands shown here. I could see thicker being easier to work with, but thinner material blending in better. The weathered and aged look on Strap Hanger's brick building look as well done as anything I've seen from commercial graphics, I'm guessing that's a very lightweight & thin sheet of decal material. Actually the same goes for everyone else who contributed...if these photos were displayed without divulging they're homemade, I would've never known.
In the early '70s building Monogram & Revell model airplanes, I remember warm water slightly increased the elasticity of a decal, and even seemed to have an effect on the glue. They seemed to bond better. Has anyone had similar results with the DIY decals?
