I have the same hotwheel, but it actually has the wonder bread logo on it. it looks weathered and beat up which would be absolutely perfect for Gaslands. Thank you for sharing this technique.

I needed some markings for a bunch of 1/72nd _plastic_ tanks. 1st: Where I live, any "Clear Coat" isn't readily available (and hell, I'm too cheap to buy online...) and 2nd: Using a hot-air gun on plastic could be, in my hands, a disaster waiting to happen! So, using your basic idea, I printed the design on regular printer paper, cut it out, then brushed it over with some model enamel clear matt varnish and placed the decal onto the paint model. I left it to dry for an hour or so. Then, wetting the decal with warm water, used my finger-tip and nail to *_slowly and carefully_* remove the paper. Bingo! It worked! :) So, if it wasn't for this video, I'd have plain, unmarked tanks. Thanks! :D

I have recently retired and was wondering what I would do to wile away the empty days. Eureka!

Wow, that takes me back! I remember a similar technique I learned around 1990. Instead of printing the images, it used the glossy ad prints from the Sunday paper. Two or three thick coats of gloss, cut out, then a still wet coat of gloss on the surface you wanted to apply it on. Had a hard hat (summer job) covered in cereal advertisements. Lucky, Captain Crunch, and Snap Crackle and Pop.

Tried this, didn’t ‘adhere’ for me. I did not spray clear on the existing car, as I was going to just put the decal on factory paint. I guess that’s my problem? I Need new paint on the decal AND the diecast..?

RaceGrooves someone used this technique for LEGO: they printed their design,then put one sided tape on top, and two sided on the bottom, then when he cut it out it was like any old sticker I’m also a sub

This was a trick I learnd back in my drag racing days in the 70s. But we used clear lacquer; works just as well. I didn't know anyone else knew...Great video!

I'm never going to put the techniques in your tutorial videos to use since I don't modify die cast cars (or die cast anything), but I'd be lying if I said they weren't fun to watch.

No one said they had to be diecast. It will work on any flat, slick surface.

Even say one made from polystyrene plastic? Because I'm pretty sure the plastic will melt or at least deform from the hair dryer phase. That said it is a cool technique for metal objects.

A hairdryer will not distort styrene plastic models. If you're just not sure, test on a body where it won't make any difference. A heat gun is another subject.

Kojak0 You know they make paint for engine blocks that will withstand 500+ degrees I don’t think any hair dryer can actually get that hot.

@Martin Luther I'm never going to give you a "👍", but I love how whiny you're comment is.

Great technique. I wish you would do a video a week! By far one of the best and informative channels on KZread.

No idea how I got here, but so glad I stayed to see the finished truck! Very cool...

I'm often hesitant to try out these techniques, but this has me intrigued that you could just print out almost whatever. Nice video man.

Thank-you so much for this! I've been trying to find a low-cost method of applying decals and artwork to my scale models. Going to try this technique and see how it works for me.

I think this is a great technique for something that looks aged and/or abanded. That decal looked blurry once you wiped all the paper fibers away. It didn't look clean like the truck was new or near to new. I like the grafetti detail. Thanks for the technique.

That is ingenious! I've always had problems with waterside decals, this is a great alternative!

Thanks for sharing this technique! This will definitely come in handy for some customs I plan on doing.

This is a really good idea! Coincidentally, I've been doing something similar to this recently. I just printed decals onto a sheet of paper, and then I glued it to the car. This is a much better idea and it doesn't seem to be too hard to do, so I'll be trying this out once I get my own can of clear coat instead of my brother's. Great job as usual!

Very cool technique. Good casting choice for this as well. Really like the end results👍🏽

That's awesome! As a 1:25 model builder, your techniques serve for a great deal of inspiration. I'd like to thank you and: Keep it up!

That trick blows me away!!!!!!! Great vid!

This is amazing advice, sir, thanks for posting it.

I have never seen this technique. I always used the decal paper. I am definitely going to try this! Thanks for posting this.

This is awesome dude thanks so much! if you can improve anything on that I would say To just adjust color saturation before printing to compensate for the faded result of original print settings.

The end result was really cool, I was not expecting that and it looked great.

Thank you for a wonderful and inexpensive way of applying graphics on a vehicle. I want to do customs so all this is new for me. I will keep this method in mind and hope to make something cool! Thank you again for this great tip!

The rust looks amazing!

I love it!!! Thank you so much! I'm going to make one for my mom's business now!

Hi, I love this easy technique. You asked for suggestions, mine is to use rice paper. It will be much easier to remove, nearly dissolve in water. Please keep up the great work!

@alloydog613

Rice paper goes through a printer? I would have thought the ink would dissolve the paper, or the paper might crack or jam in the printer. Would love to see this method in action.

I'm totally going to try this! This is super helpful! Thank you!

Great technique - thanks. Perfect for getting the aged look!

Omg nice! The video I was looking for, ain't no body got time for actual decal paper cause I'm new to decal waterside. Lol I got to use what I got at home, can I use photo gloss paper?

I love watching this guys videos. Keep it up!

you should make a sweet tooth from twisted metal version. That truck would be greät for that theme.🤓

THANK YOU! This is perfect for a project I’m working on!

i have tears in my eyes, pretty neat.

This is beyond cool! Well done!

Very nice! I'd never seen that done. Thanks!

That is actually pretty cool!!! I'm going to have to try this!!!

That came out pretty good.

Actually looks amazing im stunned

Fantastica personalizzazione, ottimo lavoro! Bravissimo!

Loved your presentation!! Very nicely produced!! Too many others on here don't know how to produce a slick video!!

That was a great project, really liked the used look

Awesome cool! Basically this is kind of a modified napkin-technique, which works perfectly for this small scale. This provides almost limitless possibilities at low cost in a simple way. With other words: genious.

Amazing. Gonna use this technique for some custom headphones im making Thanks!

thats awesome. Decal papers expensive here, so this is a much more affordable option

Brilliant! Thanks for the tip.

Another great vid from BMHW! The van turned out great! The ONLY thing I can add to the overall effect is that it could use a flat tire or two.;) I've toyed with this technique in the past and had great results with tracing paper and rice paper aswell. On the downside, you need to be a bit more careful when handling the image with these but on the plus side,they're thin enough that you don't have to remove the paper. Simply lay a moderately heavy clear coat over them and the papers absorb it. Let them cure,lay another normal clear coat over it and you can cut/polish it as you would a final coat. Again,GREAT JOB MAN!

That turned out pretty cool sir

Coolest thing, I'm gonna try this in different surfaces lol.

What an awesome technique..

Amazing!!!! thanks for sharing Chuck, RVRR

Sweet tips. Very informative.

I thought that was a pretty crappy video until I saw the end result! Awesome!
