While I had my decalling solutions and tools out to decal the GP-12 (small scissors, needle in a pin vice, Exacto knife and brush) I tackled the mail storage car in freight service. I gave the sides two coats of Tamiya gloss for decalling.

Mask Island decals are very thin and I flood the area with water when I put them down as they have a tendency to want to curl. Micro scale decal blue and red bottles were used as my setting solutions. Hubert’s mail storage decal sets give you enough for three cars or you can mess up twice and still have a backup decal. I’ll get back to detailing the underside next.
