Waterslide Decal Protection

Putting the finishing touches on my 1944 BSA M20 and would like to protect the new oval BSA waterslide tank decals. What is best to use and how is it applied? The tank is O.D. green, so I only want to protect the decal.

Many Thanks,

Hi Kenny

There are clear lacquers available in paint on or spray cans, matt and satin, we discussed it a few times over the years as some are ethanol proof and some aren't.

You will need a varnish that won't react with the paint type you have used...I usually use a brush on varnish and just slightly overlap the edge of the decal to 'seal' it....If you do use a brush ensure you have a good quality brush for a smooth finish..I use small watercolour brushes...Ian

Hi Kenny,

i Use Revell modeling paint clear coat to seal them off and protect them. just with a brush.
