Decal-glue

Decal-glue
Legend has it that occasionally, mainly when you are assembling old scale models and after getting all decals in place... they fall off, peel off and detach magically from the model after a few days! Panic seizes the modeler-victim, biting the tongue so you don't hear the screams from 50 miles away...

We wish it's really a legend or a sci-fi story, but sadly is quite real. In order to fight that nightmare, Tamiya has released a new and powerfull secret weapon: their new decal glue! A dab of this product underneath the decals, and problem solved. That simple!!! :D

Add the "decal-glue" to your cart, SpotModel will bring it to your door, and you will sleep much better ;D

A new and brilliant idea by Tamiya: a specifically formulated glue to be used with those decals that have lost their sticking powers. Just apply a dab of the product over the target surface, place your decal, remove the remains with a slightly wet brush and... voilá!!!
