Barracuda BC-72008 1/72 DH Mosquito Family Stencils

This sheet contains a complete set of stencil markings for the DH Mosquito family. They are sharper, cleaner, thinner replacements for the kit stencils, with an absolute minimum of clear carrier film. They also contain a new more accurate and detailed decal for the instrument panel. An added bonus of placards for the sidewalls and the radios adds detail to the cockpit, and a selection of very small white stencils are perfect for dressing up various panels and boxes in the cockpit. This sheet is long overdue, as virtually none of the aftermarket decal sheets available for the Mosquito include stencils.

How to apply water-slide decals:
1. Preparation: to achieve better result, a gloss or semi-gloss coat is very important. It will make a smooth layer which the decals will suction to and make it much easier to apply and set them.
2. Cut out the decal you need (do it on cutting mat)
3. Grab the decal with tweezers, place it on the surface of the water and leave it for about 20 seconds.
4. Remove the decal from the water and place it on paper towel to remove any excess water.
5. Apply decal solution to the part where the decal is to be placed.
6. Slide the decal off the backing paper on to the model. Using a paint brush or cotton bud is a good way to do this without damaging the decal.
7. Use the brush, knife or cotton bud to position the decal. Using your paper towel, gently dab the decal and soak up the excess water (decal softner is also recommended at this stage. After applying softner, the decal will suction to the part and flatten out smooth.)
8. When the decal is completely dry, give another coat of varnish or Klear/Future to seal it.
