I gave my new Underwood decals three (3) coats of Testors as recommended by the decal vendor.

Very happy with the look and should protect the decals as I use the machine in the field.

Decals from "Typewriter Decal Shop".  Went on good and I let dry overnight.

Just a few small Boo-Boos on the side decals.

Decals went on very well with just a few small mistakes with some decals on the sides.

Decal vendor suggests Testors Aerosol Lacquer to protect decals once they have been applied?


Shift key works but then sticks and carriage then needs to be pushed down by hand ~ Suggestions?

Decals not here as yet but I ordered some decal fixer to help them apply better to my Underwood.
Many modelers apply a thin coat of varnish over the decals to help protect them.
Is this a good idea on my Underwood?

I sure will ztyper and I think the local hobby store also has something called Decal Fix?

Does anyone have a vendor for replacement of the rubber paper rollers and the typewriter legs?

eBay?
