Hi Bob. If I can recall correctly, there were the old varnish type decals that were applied by painting a patch of clear varnish onto the surface to which the decal was to be applied. You had to wait for the varnish to dry and develop a "tack"...much like gold size, and the decal was smoothed onto this tacky surface, which held it in place. The backing sheet was then removed, and a top coat of clear was applied to protect the decal.
There were also water type decals as well, and these were applied just like the model airplane decals, then cleared for protection. You may have to sacrifice one to experimentation, to find out which kind you have. Good luck, and I hope this helps.
