Decal Adhesive Softener, model decal solution

Decal Adhesive Softener is a decal setting liquid for scale model work that combines adhesive and softening properties in a 10 ml bottle. Used with water-slide decals, the transparent formula helps the marking film settle onto painted surfaces and follow shaped sections more closely, so insignia, stripes and small printed details sit with a cleaner painted-on look. The mixture is described as polyvinyl alcohol in solvents and is intended specifically as a decal adhesive with softener for Nassschiebebilder. The liquid is transparent, has an alcohol odour, and a density of 0.99 g/mL at 20°C. Physical data in the supplied sheet lists a boiling range of 82 to 120°C, a flash point of 35°C and a vapour pressure of 4.4 kPa at 20°C. These details place it firmly in the specialist finishing stage of model building, where decal placement and surface contact matter as much as paint and assembly. On aircraft, cars, motorcycles or military subjects, the bottle size suits bench work where only a small amount is needed at a time for serials, sponsor graphics or panel markings. The supplied safety data classifies the liquid as flammable and eye irritating, so handling belongs in a well-ventilated workspace with appropriate care during application and storage.
