UltraCal Decals
FAQ about our line of UltraCal Decals
1. What sets UltraCal High Definition Racing Decals apart from others?
Aside from the fact they look great, featuring vivid whites, colors, and details, UltraCal decals are printed on a super thin polyester film that resists scuffing, tearing, or other abuse. You'll be pleasantly amazed to find that they easily conform to irregular surfaces / contours, don't allow the body color of slot cars, or models to bleed through, and they don't require any clear-coating!
2. How do they compare to waterslide decals?
Water slide decals chip, wrinkle, look dull, and the whites fade when colors are applied to them. To have any chance of preserving water slide decals, you'll need to clear coat them. What's more, the application of water slide decals is limited to very few areas of the car because they won't go over textured surfaces or contours.
3. How do I Install Ultracal Decals
Easy to peel and stick pre-cut decals. Simply lift, place, and press. Your creativity is no longer limited, as you can apply Ultracal decals anywhere. They will fill and conform to all sorts of problem areas such as door seams, cowl areas, and raised door handles. Simple instructions are included with every purchase.
4. Do they need clear coat?
No need for clear-coating as they already have the look of a clear-coated decal. Looks and feels like factory-fitted, tampo printed numbers. Graphics look crisper, more realistic than other decals, with more vivid colors, and provides a background with a painted look.
