Started mustering up the courage to do water decals but when applying it wobbles around to the faintest touch when drying, it's been at this for over a hour, any tips?

@kindred coyote do u haves tips of Q?
alternatively known as Q tips.
u can use one to roll over the decal, starting at the center, and gently work all of the water and air out from under the decal.
use of a setting solution applied on the target surface helps displace the water during rolling and after it's dry brushing on and leaving decal softening solvent can help them conform to uneven surfaces.
decals need to be followed up with a clear varnish to lock them in after given long enough to o properly and thoroughly dry .

HEY LOOK AT ME @kindred coyote! I JUST MADE YOU level 1 !
steady maple
well the tips will resolve the 1st problem.
with good application the solutions "can" be skipped.
they'll be prone to rubbing or flaking off without the latter.

(genuine question I'm an idiot)
thank you
doesn't sound that bad unless the rubbing messes up the decals

that is what we are talking about.
