Yes, I jumped a step. Harry is right, Future is the way to seal them when they are applied and dried in place. I was thinking about making a decal stronger on the sheet before applying. There are several clears that will strengthen the decal before you wet it, and Tamiya clear is one of them. For drastic holes or contours to make the decal "sink" into, use Papilio Decal film (spray) to get the decal ready and when dry, Champ Decal Set when applying. THEN Future.
Another thing... to make crappy, fragile Ebay acquired decals worth bothering with, use the Papilio spray twice to keep them in one piece. Its very important.
