There could well be something under the decal, as from the time I bought it, it has had a new decal clearly stuck over an old one on the left side. It's all fair and even lacquered over and no sign of paint touching up, so we'll find out when I strip it off.
That said the new decal is placed over the old (original?) one at the same angle and position and almost registers perfectly.
Dacs has been a star today and first footed me with a can of strong stripper gel.
I made an unfair swap of some Deox-C crystals, a syringe, a needle and a length of piano wire.
Good luck with your breathers Dacs and thank you for the stripper.
