Roger,
They start falling apart in the water or on the unit. Any attmpt to use thier
decal saver causes the decals to curl like a potato chip. If you lay it on
thick it causes the decal to "Pink" out. Like a bad flat overcoating.
Good luck.

Rob,
I've been stockpiling Micro Scale #87-90's (Grayback decals) for quite a
while now. I planned to paint and decal all these units in one marathon
session so that they all color matched.
I hadn't heard of any problems with M S inks. It appears that I would be
well advised to contact them before I have over a dozen F's all painted up
but with no decals usable. Thanks for the tip.
And thanks to all those who responded to my original inquiry regarding
Kadees on Stewart F's. The final consensus - use the #450's on the front &
rear of sets lashed together with drawbars.

Roger,
What are you going to use for decals????????
Micro Scale admitted to me that the Grayback set was printed with defective
Red Ink and I've gone through 8 sets proving them right.
I have found one set of the original set (without the portholes ) that I'm
saving for my FTs. If those blow up when they hit the water, I'll try Champ
or repaint and do GN or MILW.
