it must be printed on A4 water slide decal ...........

PRINT WARNING
water slide decal paper are very difficult to determine the correct printing side of the sheet
- AFTER my first experiment i have find that I have printed the correct side for DECALS1--BUT the WRONG side for the DECALS2
In Italy WSDP sheets are expensive-and I am from one Italian district famous for contest with Scottish and Jewish on money matter.
So I was very distressed -
BUT I am safe, so please don't worry -for the test I have cut only one little section of the print- so I have reversed the sheet on
the other side and have reprint it -and then re-sprayed with transparent gloss paint
So I suggest a LOT of attention before the printing operations
- you can attempt to divide one little corner of the sheet (you must have sharp nails or one girl)
- you can cut one little corner of the sheet (better if in the lower part) and divide it dip on water (remember: mark one sheet side, before)
- or as me test one little section AFTER the printing:stupid:
in every occasion remember that decals must be divided before the application-store it in one box

MERRY CHRISTMAS and NEW YEAR to all members
 
​PRINT WARNING TWO
After the first applications I have find one more trouble on my work-
I have used water slide transparent decal paper-
so if decals are applied on white surfaces all is good
but on dark surfaces the result are very bad - and contents are confuse and not readable
water slide WHITE decal paper- must be used for GOOD result
it exist here one example -I haven't no commercial or professional intent
