Dull Coat before the decals?

[Sumpter250]

Usual recipe is to gloss coat anything first, then decals, then dull coat. The reason for the gloss is to get as smooth a surface to avoid air being trapped behind the decal and ruining the appearance. As Kevin notes, it usually doesn't work out when dull coating first (or applying decals to any matte finish). Andrew

Decals should be applied to a gloss finish, Dry Transfers, to a dull finish. Dullcoat should be the last thing applied, after weathering, preferably thinned, and just enough to take the shine off.
