How to put on graphics (the wet way ) lol

[FMX_22]

Ok guys iv noticed a few people asking how to put graphics on there minis so i thought i would TRY and make a how to guide , i don't care if u do it differently this is how i do it and this seems to be the best way well i think that any way

ok so ill start

what you need
plastics. its best to use new plastics because they arnt faded and are clean .
butter knife
towel
hair dryer (or u can sit them in the sun for 5 min)
squirty bottle , put a bit of water and washing detergent in it (very important part)


N1
heat the graphics up with the hair dryer to soften them up a bit , it makes them easier to work with .

N2 spray the plastics with washing detergent .

N3 lay the graphics on to the plastics and start to line them up

use a butter knife or a rag to rub the water out from under the graphic you will notice they move a bit . try to hole them in place at the same time as working the water out .

make sure u get it all out other wise wen they heat up it will dissolve the glue .
