Have any of you ever used these decals? Do you cut the decals out at their borders? This type of sheet is new to me.
Here is a contact for JTGraphics,
They should be able to answer your questions.

I have. They are awesome. No, they don’t individually cut out the decals. At first I didn’t like it, but as I got some good knives and scissors, I actually like it better than the ones than come in kits. They are thinner as well I think, so they go on better. There isn’t a lot of film so you don’t get that murky white stuff you do from production decals. And his decals come with many versions and are REALLY detailed (each lifeboat has its own miniature number) Here are some pics of two ships I did with custom JTG. One is the West Point and the other is the Winfield Hancock. The decals REALLY bring out the detail.
If you spray the model with gloss coat the decals go on REALLY smooth, then overspray it with dull and they are “Locked In” Good luck, and once you go with JTG, you’ll never go back.
Jeff has great decals!
BTW - you should really, always cut your decals as close to the edge as possible anyway. Less decal to work with and they blend in much better, but careful not to get too close…
How well do JTGraphics stack up against PNT? Do they offer TOS era decals?
Hey Woody, yep, they do some great TOS decals, as well as all the eras. All the decals and some other great companies can be found at http://www.federationmodels.com/
Cool beans! Thanks Rob. [:)]
