Hey Cory. Re your question on how I prepped the Alclad NMF for decals, the answer is........nothing. The decals are applied straight over the Alclad. After I applied them, though, they were quite glossy so I dulled down the decals with an acrylic flat coat. This I did with a fine nozzled airbrush without masking the decals. I found that applying the dull coat in very thin layers and being careful to stay just within the decal boundary really did not affect the NMF.
