“Overall Appearance
The Quality of the Decals was Superior
Colors in the Large Starburst Decal Really Stand Out
Ease of Application, Both Transfer Tape and Peel & Stick
Three different options for main Starburst Decal.”

“The small fin Starburst decals were a bit to big for my taste, I think they would look better if positioned horizontally.
Also the background color on the smaller decals limited me on their use or the paint scheme for my rocket.  I would like to see the smaller decals printed on a clear vinyl.  That way they will look fine despite my paint scheme.”      

"Barry - here is the Tristar with decals. It looks awesome!

I used the reverse apply and peel back decals.

 The tristar logo is just a tad long on both ends to where i have to fold into the tube on both ends - just a little lie a 1/4 inch. however to be perfect it needs to be shortened."

"One of the nice things about the decals for the HDB is that they cover the fins so as to eliminate sanding the grain for a smooth finish.

The vinyl is a huge step up from the inkjet and adhesive paper used on my previous LOC kits. They are durable, water resistant and

if applied properly the edges do not curl. If you are going to spend the time building this beauty, do yourself a favor and spring for the

decals to dress it up properly."

"I just wanna say WOW! The decals

really make this rocket, super simple and clean. As long as you follow the directions and take your time the rocket will turn out great! I had no problems with the reverse transfer decals, I used plenty of water and made sure to pre-lay out all my decals before I started applying. I couldn't be more happy. Thank you for providing me with such an awesome opportunity to test these decals out and show off the new pride of my rocket fleet! Thanks again! "

"Both the reverse release and peel/stick decals were easy to use with the water + soap method.I preferred the reverse release because it was possible to anchor a corner of the xfer paper with a finger and rotate to align before smoothing down and working any bubbles out.

 The stickers that covered entire wing/fin were just the right size if there is no beveling, else they are a little big. I chose to bevel fins and trim decal edges slightly to avoid sticker "flaps" from popping up later. I suppose some finishing epoxy on forward edges would have done the trick as well.

Can't wait to fly the Cruiser! it is a classic Sport Rocket design and stickers add a lot to the finished appearance."
