Yesterday i attached some decals to the Chassis:
   Unfortunately one of the "powered by Honda" decals wasn`t of the best quality - have to live with that (and display the car from the left side!).
One question:
Should i put a layer of clear varnish over the decals? Normally i would do that, but as the chassis is varnished already, i`m not so sure.
Thanks! Quote the same questions. I also purchased the Autograph Decals. I would know if once fitted, i must spray clear coat on the body. I use Tamiya TS 13 clear gloss Collection active: Lotus 97T, Audi Quattro A2, Vw Maggiolino '60
Work in progress: Porsche 911 RS Turbo
Completed model: Delta WRC Martini, Mclaren MP4/4, Golf GTI 1/8 Tuned

Hello Walter,
I agree with Tomick, if you are happy with the finish as it is, then it's good enough? The other option if you aren't happy, might be to use a model specific wax polish but tested first on an inconspicuous area, though to be honest I wouldn't even bother with that as the bodywork looks fine to me.

Lovely job Walter.
You've done a splendid job with decals, the overall finish Is stunning! I'm sure this will get lots of attention once it's on display in its case
