archiebald Posted August 4, 2018 (edited) Hi all. My flocked decoys have faded white neck bars. Would it be worth touching these up? And if so what would you recommend? Thank you in advance for any advice! Edited August 4, 2018 by archiebald Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dave at kelton Posted August 4, 2018 Would have thought so as neck bars indicate feeding. Never touched up flock but would have thought Matt white enamel from a hobby shop that o have used on plastics would be fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
archiebald Posted August 4, 2018 Thanks guys. I thaught both of these would work. I had a guy come see me last week while out and when I mentioned touching up the white neck bar's he said don't use that as when they are made they where put on with special white uv stuff?! I'll get my self down to the diy shop. Thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

marsh man Posted August 4, 2018 Why not use ordinary white undercoat , cost next to nothing and should last at least a year , and then if needed give them another touch up , all sorted , don't worry about using special paint. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TIGHTCHOKE Posted August 4, 2018 Part of the reason for using Tippex is that it comes in a convenient little bottle with a very convenient little brush. A bottle will sort out loads of decoys! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
