Roger,

How durable were the decals you got?  I bought some of the first ones he
did.  They looked great but they broke apart very easily, even if you
were
very careful.  Jay mentioned he was working on the durability problem
and I
was wondering if he had gotten it solved (since I need to order some
more ;)

I did not have problems with lines and I assume you mean the edges of
the
decals.  I used decal solvent to soften them up after final placement,
and
then a few coats of clear gloss for durability and then a final coat of
Dullcoat so the mini isn't shiny.
