Carefully cut out each decal using a hobby
knife and/or a pair of scissors. Place the decal in a dish
of warm water to remove the backing. Damp the
surface were the decal will be applied with water
thoroughly. Orient the decal to the model and slide it off
the backing and onto the model. Pat and rub the decal
down and use a soft cloth to remove any excess water.

Check all decals to ensure proper placement
and that all edges and surfaces of the decals are flat.
Let decals dry thoroughly. Optionally apply an
appropriate non-destructive clear coat to the entire
rocket to protect decals and paint scheme.

Study the renders on page #2 to understand the
placement of decals. The renders represent a
#
complete 360 view of the Raptor. Use these different
views to determine the exact location of each decal.
Find each decal on the supplied decal sheets and
understand its orientation. It is important to have a plan
of attack. We recommend starting from the bottom and
working towards the top. Whatever attack plan you use,
take your time, and check the renders often to ensure
proper placement.
