Laura, the ones you used, were they for ceramics? I noticed that all of the decals from your supplier on Ebay were for ceramics. From what I read, the ones made for ceramics are kind of dull until they are fired in a kiln. The heat brings out the full colors then. Did you find the decals to be a little on the dull side? ~Stupid Question, if heat makes the colors pop, is there a way to heat the decals up either before or after they are applied to get full color without damaging the paint or any other heat sensitive parts on a machine? I think your Californian came out nice. Good Job!
Steve, Have you used these decal sets before? Those look great and complete. If so, can you post a picture of your results with them too?
Thanks a bunch.

I found that the colors of the decals popped a little more when the shelac was applied. But yes, they were a bit subdued. Definitely practice on a tin or something befor committing to a machine. The machine I was working on had a lot of paint damage from a motor fire, so I was pretty cavalier. I learned a lot on my practice pieces. Laura
