Yes, Predator has changed the style/type of decals yet again.
What you have is the traditional 'wet-apply' type.
Predator has gone to this type across the board, meaning FAT, 314-2 & Z-2 all use this type.
It's basically the same type of decal you used when you built model cars.
You could I suppose, float them in a saucer of water until the decal lifts or
what I do is spray the cardboard-back with a water mist and let it sit for a few secs.
Once the decal becomes mobile on the backing, just slide it off onto the shaft where
you want it.
What type of finish are you using?
