I can't find the posting that mentions what the current Pledge formula is now being used for securing decals. Some where I (think) I read it was the Pledge "Multi" formula and another post mentioned Pledge for" vinyl" flooring. Who knows???
Sure wished J&J would have kept it simple for us modelers.

Need some help from the "decal pro's" here.
I have used Future floor polish on models before applying decals. I have also used it on canopies, it makes the plastic look like glass. In my experience, the application of floor polish gives a smooth surface for the decal to adhere to. Unless you want it to say shiny you will have to over spray the decal with a dull coat. I have been using the same bottle of Future for years. I went into Wal-Mart a while back and noticed there was no Future floor polish. It appears Future was bought out by Pledge. It looks like the same stuff I have always used.
It is supposed to be used on floors not model trains. I would never use it on a model train.
There are many products for use on model trains, use them.

Thanks for your reply.
I found a bottle at Walmart this morning that looks like the one you have pictured, but without the "Future Shine" seal on the label. The one I bought is "Pledge Floor Care" Multi Surface Finish .It also mentions...Long-Lasting Shine and Acrylic Protection. I'll give it a test this weekend on some spare decals. If this formula is successful, it may be the only current alternative.
