Hi Guys and Gals,

Those of you who have used Archer Transfers for rank and insignia on your figures - how do you knock the shine off of them so they look like patches and not stickers? I am trying it for the first time, and my Pershing commander's insignia are so shiny, he looks like he ought to be driving a DuPont Monte Carlo instead The transfers are great, just need to dull them down a bit...

Thanks!

Tried a brief couple of shots of flat coat - instructions warn of possibly running the colors on the transfers if you over-do it... took a little off, but he still looks like he is headed for the pit lane hat dance...

Thanks for the reply!
