If you soaked the transfers in water - why would you then use a brush soaked in lacquer to move them about ? Sorry if dumb question, but I'm about to do the same.
Love the bike, patina belongs on these machines! I can't stand all these fucktards making everything as new, it takes the bike's soul away IMHO.

Where I really struggled was fitting some waterslide decals.... As soon as they were soaked enough to separate from the backing paper they just dissolved into dust - I'm guessing they're probably original 40's stock (from H Llloyd) - In the end I managed to get as many letters as I could by moving them around with a tiny paintbrush in wet lacquer - the missing bits I think I'm going to have to do with one of those white paint pens
