Thanks: Lozenge: Dumb Questions

Thanks to all who answered my plea for lozenge decal help. Alas! No magic
cure. I was hoping there was some special "secret" that went along with the
large lozenge decals, but I will just have to keep an eye out while the thing
dries.
In reference to Solvaset vs Micro sol/set, I've used both but prefer the
potency of Solvaset. The secret, I have found, is to use it cut w/water at
first. Once the decal is down and in place, a full strength application
really does literally melt the decal down. With lozenge however, I suppose a
weaker solution would be in line in order to gently rub the bubbles out as so
many have suggested.
For what it's worth, I just finished the rib tapes on Eduard's Fokker D.VI
using the Aeromaster lozenge, and the undersurfaces of Eduard's Hannover
using the kit decals. I like the Aeromaster colors, but Eduard's (Propagteam)
decals were easier to work with. They take abuse quite well!

Thanks again for the help all!
