Get Decals to Follow Contours with Tamiya Mark Fit

Tamiya 87102 Mark Fit is a handy aid for modellers who want decals to sit neatly on complex surfaces. The formula softens decals so they bend around curves and settle into panel lines more easily. The 40ml bottle includes an integrated brush for accurate application in tight spots.

Applying Tamiya Mark Fit Correctly

Prepare the Surface: Apply a light coat of Mark Fit to the area where the decal will be placed, making sure the surface is clean.
Position the Decal: Place the decal and nudge it into position using a damp fingertip to avoid tearing.
Secure the Decal: Use a soft cloth or cotton bud to smooth the decal and push out any trapped water.
Final Application: Paint a second thin layer of Mark Fit over the decal, easing it into recessed details and pressing down gently.
Drying Time: Leave the decal to dry thoroughly, preferably overnight, before further handling or sealing.

Is Mark Fit suitable for all decal paper types?

It is intended for typical kit decals and thin aftermarket transfers. Thicker decal papers may need repeated applications or a softening putty for full conformity.

Do I need to use a setting solution under the decal?

Applying a small amount of Mark Fit under the decal helps it settle. For tricky areas, use a light gloss base or dedicated setting solution first to aid adhesion.

Can I apply more than one coat of Mark Fit?

Yes, thin additional coats can improve conformance. Allow each coat to dry before applying the next to avoid lifting or tearing the decal.
