It can soften uneven molded surfaces, curved surfaces, and hard decals, allowing them to blend into the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eIt can be applied over a decal that has already been applied to get the desired effect. The softening solvent will soften the decal rapidly, so be careful not to apply too much. The decal itself may melt, break when it is applied to the surface, or erode the painted surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThis product is water-soluble. Adding water appropriately will dilute the effect of the solvent and prevent rapid softening. Depending on the painted surface and type of decal used, it may be a good idea to dilute it with water before use. After applying the decal, lightly press the decal with a lightly dampened Mr. Cotton Swab, Mr. Clean Stick 2, or a dust-free cloth to ensure that the decal adheres firmly to the surface of the part. At that time, wipe off excess Mr. Mark Softer with water to prevent it from softening too much. Using a damp cotton swab or similar will neutralize the Mark Softer and prevent it from becoming too soft with the solvent.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eIf air bubbles get trapped between the decal and the part (silvering), after the decal has dried, carefully poke holes in the decal with a needle or craft knife. Then, by applying Mr. Mark Softer again, the decal will soften again, the air bubbles will disappear, and the decal will adhere firmly to the surface of the part.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eOne way to prevent silvering is to use a glossy surface on the surface onto which the decal will be applied.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe main ingredients used in the previous product have been changed to environmentally friendly ones and the product has been redesigned.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe changes made to the product are as follows:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDecals are now easier to soften. Silvering is less likely to occur when used on semi-gloss or matte paint instead of on gloss paint.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eIt has more dissolving power for water-based hobby colors than previous products. This is particularly noticeable when the drying time is short, so please dry thoroughly and avoid applying large amounts. When using it, it is best to dilute Mark Softer with water to reduce its dissolving power before use. Although it depends on the drying time of the paint film, the amount used, and the wiping method, a dilution of about 10% is a good guideline.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Mr Hobby","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43050793762952,"sku":"GNMS231","price":6.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0650\/3150\/4008\/files\/GNMS231-1.jpg?v=1730431394"},{"product_id":"tamiya-mark-fit-decal-softener","title":"Tamiya 87102 Mark Fit: Decal Softener","description":"","brand":"TAMIYA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43097988923528,"sku":"T87102","price":4.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0650\/3150\/4008\/files\/t87102_x1920_b58428e1-6980-4206-9a0b-887379128cb3.jpg?v=1757000442"},{"product_id":"tamiya-mark-fit-strong","title":"Tamiya 87135 Mark Fit (Strong)","description":"","brand":"TAMIYA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43097989677192,"sku":"T87135","price":4.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0650\/3150\/4008\/files\/t87135_x1920_36a5b386-8c86-4248-8d6c-7e6a8998d74e.jpg?v=1760331648"},{"product_id":"tamiya-decal-adhesive","title":"Tamiya 87176 Decal Adhesive","description":"\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eUse this handy solution to apply decals which have been left too long in water and lost their adhesion.

Micro Set should be applied to the surface of the model where you will be sliding the decal off the paper backing. Micro Set prepares the surface with special wetting agents that cut the oils in new paint and converts the adhesive on the back of the decal to a stronger and longer lasting one. In addition, Micro Set slightly softens the decal film to make it more flexible so that it will conform better to the model's surface. Better adhesion of the decal to the model prevents tiny air bubbles from forming and results in an invisible carrier film for the so-called \"painted on look.\" To apply Micro Set: Use a soft flat artist's brush and apply Micro Set where you are going to apply the decal. Then slide the decal off the backing paper using a small pointed tip synthetic bristle brush to carefully position the decal in its proper position. Blot the decal carefully with a tissue or paper toweling, being careful not to disturb its position. Allow the decal to dry overnight.

The most amazing results in seemingly impossible places are possible because Micro Sol actually makes the decal part of the painted surface. For that reason, you should coat Micro Sol on for only a few seconds and then leave it alone. It does the work. Do not touch until the decal has dried, as the decal is very soft at this stage and could be easily damaged. For the best results, first apply Micro Sol to prepare the surface and enhance the adhesive. Make sure the surface is free of particles that could get under the decal's film and cause a blemish. Then, when everything is dry enough that the decal will not move easily, apply Micro Sol with a small flat brush. Apply with as few strokes as possible so a not to disturb the decal. Then allow the decal to dry without disturbing it. One application is enough in most cases but, if necessary, a second application of Micro Sol can be helpful.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MICROSCALE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43492804460680,"sku":"MI-002","price":10.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0650\/3150\/4008\/files\/microscale_micro-sol_decal_setting_solution_mi-002.png?v=1748484669"},{"product_id":"vallejo-17ml-decal-set-213","title":"Vallejo 73213 17ml Decal Fix 213","description":"\u003cp\u003eCleans and prepares the model surface before placing decals and wet transfers, improves adherence of the decal, and prevents formation of air bubbles without need for a previous coat of varnish.
