| It looked amazing, and I'm sure you can repair that wing. Looking forwards to seeing some flying shots! |

| This is what these kits are designed for. If you don't want to crash, then don't fly. It's not IF but WHEN they look like this. No guts, no glory. That's why mine are all hanger queens. No guts left in me. |

| Testors makes a decal set that you just brush on, it helps the decal conform better. I have had good luck with Krylon matte finish acrylic coating over the top. Remember though, it will add weight to the plane. Check your PMs at the Guillows model builders forum. |

| cowl does fit better than this. I just havn't put it on properly |

| I think you will find that decals will always adhere much better to a smooth i.e. gloss or satin surface than the relatively rough one of a matt finish. So, yes, the gloss lacquer will help. |
