Decal question

Is Perma Gloss an OK coating over a water slide decal? Worried that it might negatively effect it.

If you seal the decal with color preserver first, you should have no problem using the PermaGloss.

You better use plenty of color preserver first like George said, if you let the permagloss touch the bare decal, it will be an ugly head ache. One of my many disasters. In fact one of the first blanks I painted, the finish nor the paint I used could stand up to permagloss. Thank the guy up stairs that it was on the split grip portion so I did not have to completely re-paint the blank. I would say that just about anything made of plastic, has finish or paint or any type should be tested off project against permagloss. The stuff can be your best friend or your worst enemy.

Thank you all! Decided not to try the Perma Gloss and used thinned epoxy successfully.
