  • I bought a Ghost white toner printer setup to print CMYK+white. It's complicated and often takes two or three tries to work, but the system is about $600 instead of thousands and clear laser decal paper is less than $1/sheet if you buy 50 or more at a pop. Very cool to see your process. Thanks for sharing!

  • Amazing that nobody mentioned the decal printer of choice from the mid 90’s, the Alps MD system.. but specifically the MD-1000 that used dry ink (thermal) cartridges including white and several metallics. I made hundreds of decal sets for model trains, cars, space ships, toys. I always used the clear decal paper and did most of my design work with Corel Draw! and Photoshop 3.0.5 running on Windows 3.1 on top of DOS. I’d scan photos of real prototypes and then vectorize (trace) the graphics by hand. The rulers, guidelines and ability to lay out the decal sheet precisely made Corel Draw! the most efficient way to do it but it also let me adjust the sizes to fine tune, the duplication could be set so the next one is pasted at a specific interval in any direction, making short work of a large decal sheet. The vector images also scale easily for larger or smaller models too. I could have printed that Gulf set with white underlay and full color on top.. but you could also get tricky and print a metallic silver or gold under the colors too. I’d sometimes swap cartridge ID labels to trick the printer into doing other stuff too. It was fun to experiment and create decals that I couldn’t get anywhere else.

  • An alternative to the pixel replacement in Photoshop (seen around 8.00) being used to create smooth visual components is to convert to a vector image (drawn shape and fill, not individual pixels at all). That however requires a program such as Adobe Illustrator or Corel Draw. CD is my (relatively) cheap go-to for creating decals for shield designs on wargames miniatures... (yes, weird but effective).

  • All typical home printers use transparent ink or toner. If you have an inkjet printer sealing the decals is mandatory because it's a liquid when it prints and will re-liquify when soaked. I use Testor's Decal Bonder from Hobby Lobby in light coats to seal those. It's ultra thin and works with lacquer and enamel clear coats. If you use a Laser printer sealing the decals isn't necessary because toner is a powder that is heat applied and fused to the paper. But once laser decals are applied you should start with light coats of clear as gooping the topcoat on can damage the decals (cracking the toner or even causing the toner to "halo" - usually the yellow).

  • There are a couple of companies that are making white toner for consumer level laser printers. You basically have to trick the printer into doing it by replacing the black toner with white, but it does work. The best part of this method is it takes a couple hundred dollars (depending on if you have a compatible printer already) to do instead of a few thousand.

  • Other than buying the more expensive decals or committing to white paint only, there is one way around part of the problem, and that would be to mask off the car and add an area of white paint to the part of the decal that should be white. In the case of the Gulf decals, you’d have to paint a white circle where the center of the logo is. A lot of extra, painstaking work for something so small. I know you could pull it off Austin, but you’re the exception to the KZhead die cast community from what I’ve seen. An amateur like myself might be able to do it, but would probably have a lot of trial and error involved in the process.
