That is an excellent technique. I have a few of the newer Eduard kits and will use this technique. However, I'm wondering if the technique can be adjusted just a bit to mitigate removal of the color. Yes, it does give somewhat of a chipped effect, which may be desirable in some cases. However, I am wondering if a softer type of brush bristles may prevent the slight lifting of the color. Also perhaps once the clear film has lifted, tweezers could be used to slowly remove it, vs. the scrubbing motion with the brush. Anyway... it's all speculation at this point. Thanks again.

Yes you are right, its not at a 100% rate, if i didnt had a worn aircraft model anyway, it would have bothered me to loose some of the colour of the decal. Good thoughts with the brush👌🏼 So i will try to refine this technique, to get it up to at least 99.5%😄 Thanks for the feedback!

Thank you for this post. I will try this on a mule. While I could see your method work out on a World War II aircraft with minimal stencils, I’d hate to have to try do this on a 1/48 Phantom. I don’t know why Eduard changed their decals in the first place. As I understand it, they don’t recommend doing anything to remove this carrier film. It seems to me that they did this as a cost saving measure, and not to improve their products.

I haven’t brought another Eduard kit since they changed the type of decals. Have tried the new type decals and had a really bad experience. Spent all that time on making a kit, only to get ruined at the decal stage. Shame have missed out on some really nice kits that I would have purchased. I was an Eduard fan boy. Won’t buy another Eduard kit until they change the type of decals. My choice and my loss I suppose.

I welcome every evolutionary step regarding decals. I think you have to look at it on a case by case basis. It is always a risk to use these decals on uneven surfaces. You have to assess beforehand whether you will be able to repair the affected areas in the event of an accident. It is always to be expected that the decal will splinter over panel lines or other uneven surfaces. So far I have had good experiences on smooth surfaces. I also notice that these decals don't always have the best print quality. In addition, in some cases I think I can see a shadow around the decal where the carrier film used to be - but that could be due to the clear varnish used, etc. that is underneath. I hope that there will be further steps here in the future - perhaps also from other manufacturers - to further develop this matter or find a better solution. If you had a really working concept here, it would be revolutionary.

I've peeled Eduard decals with some success. Gloss coat, decal set(micro set), decal softer (micro sol or solvaset) so they really bed down. Decals dry for minimum 24hrs. Then detach Tamiya tape lightly pressed onto decal to remove film. Seemed to work well on my last Eduard Spitfire model with almost no decal removed. However I have had the whole decal peel off with this method on a test model. Seems a lot of work with no guarantee of success. Why can't Eduard just provide good quality decals that are proven to work such as Cartograph? Especially in their profi packs which are expensive kits. If Airfix and Revell can provide quality decals why can't Eduard?

I still don't understand what Eduard are trying to achieve - they say that the decals aren't specifically designed to have the film lifted and they give no advice for taking the film off, but if you don't, they aren't very nice. Your method is great, the best I've seen, but still not 100% guaranteed so I'm not going to spend days on a kit just to hope that it turns out ok in the end. For me it means factoring in aftermarket decals into the price when making a decision on an Eduard kit.

I think they may be trying to merge standard decals with the effect of dry transfer decals, which give a painted-on look. Think of it as an upside down decal. With a standard decal, the layers are paper>glue>carrier film>ink. With this new generation, the order is paper>glue>ink>carrier film. So, as the glue sets the ink and the decal dries, the carrier film is lifted and all you have left is the ink, which gives the look of painted-on markings.

Since Eduard introduced these decals I stopped buying Eduard model kits, I have a few from before, great kits, so its a shame they decided to introduce this type of decals. Your method looks interesting and works for you, but again I can’t be bothered with the hassle of building a kit, painting etc and have the decals going wrong after a lot of hard work, ruining the kit. Some will say buy different decals, but buy the kit. Why should I go to the extra cost, when I shouldn’t have to. Until Eduard go back to tried and tested decals, or create decals that work every time re film removal, I will opt out of Eduard as a brand, unless its an older one pre the new decals.

I'm not seeing any advantage to doing this. These decals just aren't as good as the old one, and I don't understand the mental gymnastics people are going through to prove they are. Maybe they will make them better in the future. But even in your tests, you had issues. I've seen a number of "fixes" for these decals, like putting solvents on the decal to loosen the film. But that open up all kinds of other potential problems. I'd love to know why they made this change, it just really makes no sense to me.
