Do you mean Micro Scale? If so their setting and softening solutions are the business. Micro Sol & Micro Set are great, especially for getting rid of silvering, or making decals follow contours and surface details.

Micro sol, great stuff to use. Follows down into and over the top of panels lines. I like to use the red bottle as it softens the decals to conform to irrregular surfaces for a "painted on" look. Got that of the bottle...hehehe. No really it works great

I think Cvrle meant exactly what he wrote: Model Master I don't know if they offer it in Europe, but in US catalogue of Testors they indeed offer Model Master Decal Set 1737. I have never used it, so I don't know how good (or bad) it is.

I have used the Model Master decals set,and it seems as strong as Micro set.I use all three depending how tough a decal is to get to snuggle down.Some refuse no matter which I use.The Decals on my Big Shot were espescially thick.
