Not very happy with the photofinish
#19

He does have a few videos that detail how to apply the Refaux-Pro photofinishes:

Before placing the decals he covers the bare wood with gloss lacquer which allows you to move the decal around a bit and make sure it's exactly where you want it to be.

Another option is to use Micro-Sol and Micro-Set solutions. These are specifically made for setting decals.

Hard to tell how thick the decal paper is but at least it appears to work well in his videos. I hope so since I just ordered a kit for my Zenith 6-S-321.

Regardless, I'm glad there is someone out there catering to the photofinish problems that can come up and I'm willing to give it a shot.
