| Archer Fine Transfers
are rub-on dry transfers, not water-slide decals. As
such, they take a different set of skills to apply to a
vehicle, but the end results are very nice to behold.
There is obviously no decal film surrounding the markings
that needs to be hidden under a clear coat or weathering,
but a clear coating is still recommended to completely
seal the markings onto the underlying paint. The superior
appearance of the applied markings is a little balanced
by the more difficult application, but once you get the
hang of it, you'll likely prefer these over water-slide
decals. This set includes markings for a single M4A3E8 of A Company, 15th Battalion, U.S. 6th Armored Division.
