[Hallicrafters] Re Decals--results of using while decal paper

[LeeCraner at aol.com]

Below is my original post re using inkjet decal paper.  The results are from retrying the lettering using the white rather than clear inkjet paper.  It worked!  Though I had to fill the background with black (since the background would otherwise be white, of course), the lettering is now opaque and stands out well against the black panel.  Not a perfect solution, but it is acceptable for my purpose.

I tried using the Inkjet/Clear Water Slide decal paper marketed by Bel, Inc.

Though the gold lettering I printed looked perfect against the white backing paper, it ended up too translucent when applied and almost disappeared against the black panel.  I'm now trying a white Inkjet Aqua Slide decal paper marketed by Papilio, again printing the gold lettering, then filing the background black.  I'll post how this comes out after I try applying it.
