I need to know what that Micro Sol does to the water slide decals after it put on the rod? Would I really need it? Thank you.

MIcro Sol is more intended for use on models, where the decal is to be placed over fine details that the modeler would
like to show through. It is basically a solvent that gellifies the decal so that it can flow around the details on the surface.
You don't need it for applying waterslides to the smooth surface of a rod.

There are a number of Decal setting solutions that some folks do like to use when applying waterslides. Use of these
will make positioning the decal a bit easier, as well as give you a bit more time to work with, but, it is not a must.
