I'm building a 1:144 scale 757 and designing it to be completely
custom.  The livery calls for a custom decal spanning the entire
length of the fuselage.  I have created them on my computer and
printed them out on Testors blank decal paper.  I split the decal in
two since it wouldn't fit on one sheet.  I've had no problem
positioning or manipulating the decal but even if I avoid contacting
the surface of the decal, the ink starts to depart the decal.  I have
sprayed the finished sheet with dullcote and clearcote multiple times
and nothing seems to seal the decal's ink.  Also I'm using a standard
HP inkjet printer.  Anyone have a solution?
