This is a standalone sheet of modeling decals in 1:35 scale, not a kit. The set carries the markings of the Tiger I heavy tank with the tactical number 1331 according to the name, and it is intended to finish a model you already have built and painted.
A decal holds only on a smooth, glossy surface. So spray the places where the markings are going with clear gloss varnish and let it cure thoroughly. On matte or grainy paint, air is trapped under the carrier film and a matte silvery rim appears around the design, which modelers call silvering. On dark camouflage it tends to be obvious at first glance and it is very hard to remove afterwards.
Cut the design out as close to the printing as possible, dip it for a few seconds in lukewarm water and let it rest on a paper towel until it starts to slide freely on the backing paper. Slide it onto the moistened spot, adjust the position with a soft brush and draw the excess water off from the center toward the edges. An intricate surface is a job for a two-part system: apply the setting solution to the base before laying, the softener only onto the laid markings. The film ripples for a while and looks ruined, but as long as it is drying, do not touch it, as it draws itself into the rivets and the engraved lines. If your kit has a layer of Zimmerit, count on the rough surface using up more softener.
Once the markings are completely dry, seal them with another coat of gloss varnish and unify the surface with a matte or semi-matte varnish. That makes the edge of the carrier film practically disappear. Only then comes the patina: washes, dust and chipping, which blend freshly laid decals into the rest of the model.
The package contains decals. The kit, paints, varnishes and softeners are not part of it, unless stated otherwise.
