Maybe the hot Q-tip would help on the trouble spots.
You are a braver man than I am to atempt those decals.

Re: WIP Flying LIzard Porsche
Hi Guy,s ,Thanks for looking and thanks for the Q Tip idea,to be honest I,m not that happy with this kit and the decals are really hard work but I,m commited now and I,m determined to cross the finishing line!
I will clear coat and just pray the decals behave.
Kind regards,Alex.

Clear-coat looks great, nice work. Using the lacquer really smooths out the decals, makes them look painted on. You're at the summit now, hopefully the rest of the build will be easier, but this will look great in your collection.
Cheers,
Chris
