I watched a Youtube video today of a modeler building Eduard’s P-40E Warhawk. At the point of decal application, he mentioned something about not peeling the carrier film. The implication I got was he could remove the carrier film from the decal once it’s applied, or at least that’s what I was thinking.
Or am I mis-interpreting that statement? I’ve been building for decades, but don’t recall ever removing carrier film from applied decals. Prior to applying, you cut the decals from the carrier film as close as you can, but it’s not like you’re removing the clear film from over the roundel or other decal.
