Yes, Ben. It was a challenge. PARTICULARLY the decals - they were complete RUBBISH!. They were old, brittle, and did NOT respond well the the decal setting agents, PARTICULARLY the ones with compound curves like around the back of the canopy, it took 4 or 5 applications of heated Microsol, and I STILL had to press down the creases and bubbles with a Q-tip to get them to conform. The edges of the blue flash on the vertical stab. were prone to chipping if I wasn't careful. In the end, tho, I managed to get a decent looking bird.

For tough decals, nuking the Microsol for 30s can often work. Think about it. Hot water dissolves stuff in it faster than cold. I would only recommend it as a last effort. Some decals might be messed up with hot Microsol, so I's suggest trying it first on a spare decal on the sheet you're working with.
