I applied these decals last night. They were clear and looked great when I put them. This morning when I checked the clear had all turned a greenish color. There was even green splotches where the Microset had been had run on the rocket. That wiped off with a wet paper towel but the color is under the decals, it's there to stay.
Here's what I used. I painted this Orion Starfighter clone with Krylon Metallic-Gold Leaf over Krylon gloss black. I was extremely pleased with how how the paint looked. I used some older decals from Tango Papa that I had coated with Microscale liquid decal film. Then I applied them and used a liberal amount of micro set.
I saw in some old threads that people suggested clear coating metallic finishes because they are rough for applying decals. I didn't see anything about this weird tarnishing, though.
Anyone else ever have this happen?
BTW - I applied decals on the white stripe at top of the model and there was none of this discoloration there, It has to just be the metallic paint.
