| Subject: | UniModel Decals, bad experiences? |  |

I wonder if the following is just a bad batch or if other people have encountered the same with Unimodel decals?
I'm finishing some Unimodel SU-76Ms and was terribly disappointed in the decals. They fall apart like they are decades old.
I had an SU-76 (closed top) from this company that I'm building at the same time as my 3 SU-76Ms and its decals were just fine. The four sets of decals provided with the SU-76M model look really nicely done, but too my horror disintegrated in water. I tried another set coated with decal set I use for making my own decals, but the results were not much better.
I ordered the three SU-76Ms at the same time so they could well be part of a bad batch. HAs anyone else encountered this? I still have a number BA-10 armoured cars waiting for assembly...
At least I can just leave the decals off for these Soviet assault guns.
