Great video brother you showed exactly the struggle with working a big piece of decal. Isn't as easy as people think. I like the techniques you used and how you worked the decal around the sharp lines and Contours very well done sir
Sick man! Keep up the good work!
Your decal videos are so helpful !! I’m going to be doing some Tamiya F1 cars and they have some tricky carbon shapes. Thanks so much for sharing your expertise !!

Congratulations to the videos. I would like to look at you with a truck video. Maybe you have plans for the future?

Doing vents with carbon fiber is a breeze. Simply apply the CF decal over the vents the same way you would apply them over a solid body panel. Applying gentle heat from a hair dryer you will soon notice the vents starting to appear as the decal conforms to their shape. Once you can clearly see the vents forming, take a "brand new" #11 knife blade and gently pierce each vein running the knife completely through the vein, don't do anything else, the decal will completely form itself over each vein. Its really is that simple and you'll wind up with perfect CF vein's. The real trick here is to use a new #11 blade so the tip of the blade pierces through the decal without applying pressure to the decal that could disrupt conformity as well as tearing the decal. Place the part in a food dehydrator overnight and the next morning you'll have a perfectly formed CF part. Thanks to Tom for his amazing and informative How To on CF decaling video.

Thanks Tom.
Thanks for this vid, I'll have to watch it closely because I've always had problems with decals or bigger areas..
Thanks 😃
Thanks for the video, find it very well done! Just one question I would have why you no longer take the Micro Set? Or is this really advertising for Magic Decal too?

Speedy xD decal magic replaces micro set and sol. Does the same thing but in 1 product. Either is fine. Just what you preffer
You should make a video building a Tamiya Toyota Supra
Hello. I love your job but I am having difficulty applying the transfer. do you have any advice please?
Do you have to use Scale Motorsports decal solution or can you use something else like Solva-set?

You can use your preffered decal solution
Thank You so much for this vid.By the way do you know of any air brushes that are cheap (and compressors)? or can i just use spray paints (Is airbrush necessary?) Sorry for the questions lol but i hope you can answer them if not it is fine.

What you did to me was not easy at all! Do you do motorcycles? Only because as lots of curves, I would love to ear your thoughts.
Not sure if you’ve made a video of applying carbon fiber to the side mirrors. If so I’d like to know so I can watch. Thanks
It makes a wrapped on a full carbon body, it reminds me a C-West S2000 and HKS LanEvo8 time attack race cars.
Can you please do the GMC snow plow truck want to see you do it please
Great video and it really shows you how much work and patience you need to have. But how do you handle hood scoops? I am currently building a Subaru WRX STi. Would you consider doing multiple pieces or work with the single piece and cut the hood scoop portion carefully?
@TheScalemodelingChannel

Try making a template with masking tape. If that has huge creases. Then multiple pieces is the way to go. If it goes on easily in one piece then…

@@TheScalemodelingChannel Thanks for the reply! I have tried the single template method but I had some trouble when it came to punching the hole for the hood scoop after the decal was applied. Or do you recommend punching the hole in the template as well if I were to continue using the single piece template?

You could punch the hole in the template. But be very precise

Not too sure if you already have said anything, but I messed up a model paint job the other day and was wondering if you have tips for fixing the paint job.
