Peel 'n stick decal retention?
Hello All,
Has anyone found a way of ensuring that the Estes peel 'n stick decals (like those in the Gnome and Yankee kits) will stay on? (In my experience, they have a limited "adhesion life," after which they begin to de-bond from the rocket.) Is there any sort of surface preparation, and/or perhaps a spray-on product (clear artist's fixative spray, maybe?) that makes such decals stick? I prefer water-transfer decals, of course, but many kits don't come with those.
Many thanks in advance to anyone who can help! (This would be helpful to many others as well.)
