Matho Models Small White Number Waterslide Decals

Matho Models 80003 provides an A6 sheet of small white waterslide number decals in eight different heights. The sheet includes 1mm, 1.5mm, 2mm, 2.5mm, 3mm, 4mm, 5mm and 6mm digits, giving you a broad choice of sizes for adding white numerical details to scale modelling projects. Each height is identified on the sheet, making it easy to select the required digit size.

Suitable for all scales, the decals feature separated film, allowing individual numbers to come away one by one without the need to cut precisely to their edges. Their ultra-thin construction helps them adapt well to different surfaces, while the semi-matte finish provides a controlled appearance. High-definition printing produces crisp results even across the smallest details, with accurate and colourfast white printing.

Eight White Digit Heights from 1mm to 6mm

The A6 sheet contains white digits in 1mm, 1.5mm, 2mm, 2.5mm, 3mm, 4mm, 5mm and 6mm heights. Having eight clearly identified sizes together provides flexibility when choosing the physical number height required for a design. These Matho Models decals are covered by a semi-transparent protective sheet. Once this cover is removed, the decals have their crisp and bright appearance ready for application.

Applying the Waterslide Number Decals

Cut out the required decal with a sharp knife and place it in water for approximately 5 to 10 seconds to loosen it from the carrier paper. Gently slide the digit into position using tweezers. Decal softener, such as Micro Set and Sol, can be used for better adhesion, particularly when applying the decal to a non-flat surface.

Once positioned, use tissue paper and apply light pressure over the decal to remove excess water or decal softener and fix the number in place. Varnish can then be airbrushed over the decal for protection. Semi-matte or matte varnish can be used to reduce glare if required, followed by the usual weathering process to blend the selected 1mm to 6mm white digits into the finished design.
