I am about to start my first custom die-cast this Friday and I have a question about the decal sheet. I got the decals from Platto's and I heard sometimes they are not the right size and do not cover everything they are suppose to on the car. I am doing a 2013 Jeff Gordon Axalta Cromax and the whole car is decals does anyone have any tips before I start?

Throw them in the garbage. Patto's decals are complete shit. They are actually made to fit his slot-car bodies, not the diecasts, so you will more than likely have fitting issues.
And as much as I HATE to say this, you are better off getting the Powerslide sheet. My personal suggestion is to buy them from anywhere but Mike's Decals. But that is my personal opinion. lol

Only problem is he is talking about the 2013 car and Mike only has the 2014 car. If I were you I would go with the 2014 Axalta since it was a winner. Otherwise, Stoney is right the decals will be a mess on a diecast body.

is there a web-site for the ones you are talking about so I can see what to order. I bought three decal sets from Platto's at $22 a set which stinks.

And the fact Patto is a thief stealing others' artwork.

Yea I'm afraid his decals are not going to fit but unfortunately I already bought three sets so I am going to have to use them to practice with, thanks guys.
