RE: Lazy Man's Cammo

I don't recall the name of the material or what specific type of decal
it
works with, but I have used a commercially available chemical that helps
a
decal "snug" down over an irregular surface. I once used it when
applying
roundels to some French WWI aircraft miniatures, but have apparently
lost
the bottle during my last move. The roundel decals actually flowed down
into
the crevice separating wing and flap quite nicely.
