"Dry Transfer" decals are sensitive to use compared to "Wet Slide" decals. Unlike in wet slide decals where you could easily position the decal in place, dry transfer decals are permanent. Meaning there's no turning back once you apply it. So here are some tips on how to do the dry transfer decal application.
It's important that you look first in the manual to make sure you have the right decal for the part you want to stick it in. Here, we'll make use of the 1/100 MG Strike Freedom's left shoulder as an example.
Next, cut the decal you want from the decal sheet using a design knife or scissors (whichever is comfortable for you).
Hold the decal using your fingers or tweezer and slowly apply it on the plastic part. Then press it firmly with your fingers.
We're almost done. Now get a coin and rub it against the decal. Make sure you rub it as hard as you can so that there will be no leftovers.
Finished! Just peel off the plastic and you will see that the decal is now printed on the plastic part. As you can see dry transfer decal isn't that hard once you get the hang of it.
