I don't use varnish, you can buy pots of liquid decal film or i use future floor polish. For me they work much better than varnish. Please also check you have inkjet paper if you have a inkjet printer, or lazerjet paper for a lazer printer. Ive made that mistake myself once. Ahhhhh the future floor...

Nail varnish or nail varnish remover? If it smells like pear drops it's acetone which will melt most plastics. Remover......... Correct!... Hence minuscule amount, it's removed the black, and only very slightly, hardly noticeable left a "streak" where the black once was, but this isn't a ...

Thanks for that poliss but I think I have cracked it. Cotton bud with the tiniest tiniest spot of nail varnish. It's slow but seems to be working.

Lol well I thought I.d decided. One main factor pushing me towards DCC is less electrical. The one thing pushing me away is the cost of fully set up locos. Now Im not really wanting sound that isn't to much of an issue. If a 20 comes along at the right price them I'll go for it but 200 quid on a toy...

Now you've decided to go ahead, Mark, you might be better opening a separate thread on the DCC part of the forum for your questions on DCC as this thread doesn't even refer to DCC in it's title. You should then get all the DCC crowd answering your questions! :wink: http://www.newrailwaymodellers.co...

So I don't have to have a specific make for a specific loco then?
