Woodland Scenics DT600: Dry Transfer Burnisher
The DT600 Dry Transfer Burnisher is an essential precision tool for modelers who demand perfection when adding decals to their structures, vehicles, or rolling stock. Unlike standard household items, this burnisher features a specially designed tip that provides even pressure, ensuring your dry transfers bond perfectly to any surface—from smooth plastic to highly textured building walls.
The Precision Modeler’s Advantage
Consistent Pressure Delivery: The burnisher's tip is engineered to distribute pressure evenly, preventing the "skipping" or tearing that often occurs when using a ballpoint pen or pencil.
Double-Sided Utility: Features two distinct ends—a rounded tip for broad application and a tapered point for fine-detail work in tight corners or along recessed lines.
Surface Protection: The smooth, polished finish of the tool ensures it glides over the carrier sheet without snagging or scratching the surrounding paint and scenery.
Ergonomic Grip: Designed for comfort during long detailing sessions, giving you the steady hand needed for perfectly aligned lettering and stripes.
Universal Compatibility: While optimized for Woodland Scenics Dry Transfers, it is the ideal tool for any brand of dry rub-on decals or even for working masking tape into deep textures.
Expert Application Techniques
The "Anchor" Method: Position your decal and tape one edge to the surface. Use the rounded end of the DT600 to rub the center of the decal first, moving outward to prevent air bubbles.
Working into Texture: For decals on brick or wood siding, use the tapered tip to gently press the transfer into the mortar lines or wood grain for a "painted-on" look.
The Reveal: Peel the carrier sheet back slowly. If any part of the decal hasn't transferred, lay it back down and use the DT600 to re-burnish that specific area.
