I did not know how the decal or lacquer close the decal will react with acetone and that why I did not wipe any closer . Left a narrow “barrier” around the decal edges as can be seen. I will stop here as recommended and the decal can have that “lacquer protection”. Hey that is a great explanation for it 😝 Anyhow the helmet is now much better than with greenish lacquer coat. Color change was rather huge :)</blockquote><br> Upload Files:Add another file ...Maximum files: 10 · Maximum file size: 10 MB · Allowed file types: jpg,jpeg,gif,png,bmp,pdfCancel Share this: Share on X (Opens in new window) X Share on Facebook (Opens in new window) Facebook Like this:Like Loading...
