Only video that explains the difference between these 2 this thoroughly. I could never get a straight answer on the difference between them. I normally use Solveset, which is very strong. On thin decal like Microscale brand I would wait for the decal to dry, then apply Solveset. I have gotten, in paint sets, weaker decal solutions which all worked fine on thin decals. I tried Micro Set which works very well, however when a very textured surface or thick decals are in play good old Solveset works great! Some times several applications are needed.I also like using Testor's plastic paint brushes for water & solution application.
I have, but I've never seen the need. After the "melting" step (will help the decal stick anyway) I seal decals with a final clear coat of desired sheen. Quality decals look like painted on.
Yes either solution is 99% water and the remaining is vinegar and acetone. These are rough numbers but it shouldn't harm anything unless its as thin as the decal you are using.
Can you use this on stickers? Like for Transformers or Monster High Dolls? And if so, can you apply it on stickers that are already on the figure or does it only work if you haven't stuck the thing on the figure yet?
It should not. All it is is a very diluted (like very very like 90% diluting agent) acetone with some vinegar added in I believe. I haven't had any issues with the 100s of decals I've used. It just makes the decals a little more flimsy thats all
@@venompaintball8519 I just finished my 1:24 scale UH1 Huey helicopter RC conversion. Got all the decals on and sealed in with 2 coats of enamel flat clear coat.
I haven’t used it this way but I don’t see why you couldn’t. It’s basically softens and allows for positioning. Another option Brittney could be using a simple water and white vinegar solution.
Can't tell you've done this a few times!😄 Thank you for the tutorial brother 👍

can you pls make a vid for the decals on the recon (wolffe) helmet
I'd love to when I find some time to work on a video
Venom Paintball cool, i just bought the decals but i cant find any guide for that helmet
@Hina Arora That's not an adhesive. Its a solvent and its made of vinegar water and acetone off the top of my head
That's a game changer
thanks fir the vid!
Can you use both on the same decal (one so that the decal fits, the other so it sticks)
I have, but I've never seen the need. After the "melting" step (will help the decal stick anyway) I seal decals with a final clear coat of desired sheen. Quality decals look like painted on.
@@chuchuchip Thank you, this helps a lot
It works thank you so much
Can micro set be used as like the coat that the decal sticks to on like a abs plastic plain model
What's the difference between a decal and a sticker? I have board game horses that have stickers that won't stay on. Would these help?
Stickers are generally printed vinyl, decals are a silk screened or printed thin film that should be clear coated.
When applying the micro set it damn near drys up and disappears as soon as I paint it on. Is this supposed to happen ?
Wiard question can I use micro set on a polycarbonate body ? Of a rc body
Yes either solution is 99% water and the remaining is vinegar and acetone. These are rough numbers but it shouldn't harm anything unless its as thin as the decal you are using.
@@venompaintball8519 I have with no ill effects.

Not for stickers.
Does micro set attack enamel paint finish on my model?
It should not. All it is is a very diluted (like very very like 90% diluting agent) acetone with some vinegar added in I believe. I haven't had any issues with the 100s of decals I've used. It just makes the decals a little more flimsy thats all

Cassid?
Can this solution be used on candles?
Why would you use it on candles?
I haven’t used it this way but I don’t see why you couldn’t. It’s basically softens and allows for positioning. Another option Brittney could be using a simple water and white vinegar solution.
I personally don’t use it. Just not a fan of how it’s used. Nor do I really need it. Good video man!
Can i do it only with water ?
@@RAfI-zu4un you can, it’s just harder
@@slufffyg503 thx
Can this Micro Set be used to remove waterslide decals on a carbon bicycle rim?
Jan it’s meant to help decals stick I don’t think it can get it off
@@venompaintball8519 Okay, thanks. ;)
