Oh, on the question of setting solution, using Solvaset.

Ah! The "Nuclear Option"! Good choice. Still, your decal looks excellent; no sign of any issues. You got this man, keep it going!

Solvaset seems to be very popular Decal setting on that side of the pond. I wonder if it is even available here.. :hmm:

Wonderful Bruce!! Oh yes, good stuff and absolutely very much available here. As a matter of fact a "made in Belgium" thingy

They, Daco products, have some other stuff as well; https://www.dacoproducts.com/

I have precisely the same "Strong" setting, but I am afraid the best-before date is done as it's not really doing anything... :hmm:

I appreciate the short discussion on solvents. Good info and I had nothing to report, so all is good.

Got the "scoop" done and installed. For the number of pieces parts involved in getting this far, things fit exceedingly well. I am amazed. While I am getting better at this stuff of fitting things, I don't think I'm that good yet. For the interior green, I used Mr. Hobby Aqueous Hobby Color H58 Interior Green. Why? Because I have 6-8 bottles of the stuff. I was weak.

That is a nice shade of interior green !

Happy to hear your the fit with the internals was better than I had (no sanding needed)
