About Archer Fine Transfers:

Archer Fine Transfers is well known in the modeling community for producing highly accurate transfers of excellent quality. Although they have some traditional water-slide decals available, their primary product line is dry transfers. Dry transfers are are markings that you don't have to use water to apply, but instead you gently rub them on with a blunt tool or object, when they are dry.

The benefit of using dry transfers over water slide decals is that dry transfers are usually more realistic in appearance because they appear painted on like real vehicle markings. This better appearance is due to the transfers not having excess carrier film and also being generally thinner than water slide decals so they snuggle down and hug the object better.
