A couple of weeks ago I shared a discovery I made about how to make those tiny white numbers on pale pink or blue decal paper stand out by applying black broad felt marker ink on the rear of the sheet and letting it bleed through. I had had no problem w/ the technique because I used the marker as I was doing the decaling. Recently I had occasion to leave the decaling of one side of a car until the next day and it seems that after that ink sets up it provides a barier to the water when soaking the decal. The decal will loosen up eventually, but it takes a really long time if the ink has had a chance to thoroughly dry. My appologies to anybody inconvenienced by this. (It still works, it just takes much longer)
Thanks for the update, I am sure I would be one of those to experience the problem of slow release and be very frustrated. Good follow up to a good tip.
