Has anyone ever tried to apply dry transfers to "raw" unpainted or sealed plaster before? It sounds strange but here's my plan. I have a plaster tunnel portal that I intend to install on my layout, but it needs a little something extra. so I was thinking, ( I know It's a dangerous thing ) It has a large keystone at the top of the archway that would be the perfect spot to carve a date or railroad initials. The problem is that I don't trust my handwriting, My 1 year old's is probably neater. I'm hoping that I could rub on some dry transfers and use them as a stencils to scribe in the lettering. But I don't know if the transfers will stick to the unpainted plaster, so I was wondering if anyone had tried anything similar. Now to choose a font...
