Decalcas 1:24 Peugeot 205 GTI Group A - Lombard RAC Rally 1988

This is a set of waterslide decals (wet decals) in 1:24 scale from the Spanish brand Decalcas, which makes it possible to build a Group A Peugeot 205 GTI in Talbot Sport colors with the partners Gemini Oil for the British Lombard RAC Rally of 1988. It is neither a kit nor parts, but complete decal markings including sponsor logos, competition numbers and additional lettering.

The real subject

In its Group A form the Peugeot 205 GTI was one of the nimble representatives of the two-liter rally class of the late 1980s. The British Lombard RAC Rally was one of the most demanding events of the world championship, famous for its muddy forest special stages.

Application tips

• Varnish the body to a gloss base first, as decals hold best on a smooth finish.
• Dip the decal briefly, slide it off the backing and adjust its position until it sets.
• Use a decal softener so that the film follows the edges and the pressings.
• Once dry, go over it with varnish to sink the printing in and protect it.

Who it is for

• Builders of car models with a focus on rally history.
• Modelers who want a faithful period sponsor scheme.

An accessory to a car model. The basic kit, the paints and the varnish are not included in the package.
