I just finished using a set on this High Point Thamasville and Denton boxcar. My experience was that the graphics are well done and clear. Compared to Microscale decals, The decal paper is thinner and the the glue releases very quickly, like 20 seconds. I ruined some on my first try by using Micro Sol on them and then trying to move them a little. Micro set worked better as it is not as strong. I found the white stripe to be somewhat thin in color and it let some of the color of the car show through in a way that gave it a weathered effect. I went over it with a wash of white acrylic paint to make in a bit more opaque, which helped but it still looks weathered rather than like a new paint job. This is ok in my case and I went with it. I liked that the decal paper disappeared well and did not leave that edge where you cut it out.
So, my take away was that they look good, when you apply them don't fuss around with them too much. Get them in place and leave them alone. If I had wanted my project to look freshly painted, I would have applied two layers of decals on the larger printed areas like the white stripe and name.
Here's a pic, but since I weathered it up a bit, it might not be that helpful.
