Regarding Microset and Microsol: Microset (blue bottle) is meant for positioning and sliding the decal around on a surface (some use water). Once it's positioned, Microsol (red bottle) can be used to soften the decal so it conforms and sticks to the surface better. Some people like Walthers Solvaset for this, but it's more aggressive on decals.
Brilliant tutorial video. I wonder if a damp Q-Tip (cotton bud) rolled over the dial after aligning your print on the dial would provide a more consistent gentle method of ensuring all is stuck down. Rolled over rather dabbing or pressing
I purchased a watch and I was given the option of a sterile dial. I didn’t care much for the name. But now I would like to put some information on the dial. This is an interesting method. 😮
Genius work! Really awesome video!! I can watch this video several times!! What software do you use for your design?? Corel, Flexisign, Adobe or anything else?
Xavier, great video! Just curious how the hour markers on the blue dial held up in the oven? Biggest question I have is if when you’re baking the decal to adhere to the surface do you have to worry about the hour markers melting?
Great job! Coupla questions … the link to the decal paper doesn’t work, can you repost? What program did you produce the art in? What print output settings did you use? Dpi? It’s some of the sharpest output I’ve seen.
I am trying not to be offensive. But I always notice how someone with brilliant technical skills, doesn’t really have brilliant design / artistic skills. Look at the high end watches and take ‘inspiration’ from them if anything. Them watch faces might as well have Blackpool on them!!! (U.S peeps might not get the joke) : Blackpool is a tacky north west seaside town.
21:42 Fire bro! I may copy your workflow :) Thanks for the tips and sharing with everyone.

Love your work. How detailed can your graphics be on the waterslide?
What ever you can print

printer highest resolution 1200 dpi. I use corel draw software
Thanks!
How did you print in white?
I don't think that is possible on normal Cyan, Yellow, Blue, Black Laser printers. I guess some copyshop may offer white printing.
I ordered the paper. I'm curious 👍🙌
