Decal Paper Question?

[Stiff Neck Studio]

I am looking to purchase some really good decal paper that is of the same quality GW uses for there decals. I picked some up from a local store and it was way to thick and was very difficult to work with. Please let me know of a good place to order it online and what type of paper i need.

Generally hobbyist decal film (the clear stuff) is a little thicker. Use Microset and Microsol and that thickness goes away.

LOL, been there and done that. The decal begins to try and fold over all over itself before i can get the decal onto the model surface. I was really hoping i could just buy a higher grade paper some where.

Decal Paper

Here\'s where I went to get my decal paper:

http://www.decalpaper.com/

It costs about $25US for a a 25 pack of 8.5\"x11\". They have clear and white (white is about $30US). It is a little thicker than commercial decals, but works great! Like stated above, us Microsol & Microset (helps the decal adhere and soften it so it can conform to the surface).

It\'s too thick and it does that? I always used to have that problem when the decals were thin, which makes me think maybe it\'s a technique problem?
