My experience has been that the graphics "disappears" into the black background even though the printer settings have been preset for maximum ink.

The only success so far is to print the design on white (non-transparent) decal paper with a black which is very close to the loco color, and touch up the edges with black paint.

After weathering, the decal blends right into the paint job.

Anyone have anything to share about transparent decal paper.

Thankls,

George
