Welcome to DACO's website.

31 years ago, on 7 September 1989 to be exactly, DACO Products was officially registered as a company, after already being active for several years in designing decals as a hobby...

It all started when I designed & 'printed' my very first decals when I was 15-16 years old (40 years ago). Using a special copier that could not only print standard black but also various 'solid colours' like white, yellow, red & blue, I was able to create my own Belgian Air Force F-16A markings that didn't exist on the market. And after entering the model at a local model contest I had so many requests for these decals that I started to search for a screen printer which was familiar with printing decals... Artwork was created with Chinese ink & paper on larger scale and afterwards reduced by xerox copiers. Several years later this step was replaced by big black studio's with special camera's to create the various screen films, until the first Apple was purchased, a MacIntosh IIfx, allowing to make films directly from artwork files.

30+ years later I've published my eleventh book, the long awaited "Uncovering the F-15A/B Eagle", and I'm trying to finish the instructions and decals for my upcoming 1/32 Fouga Magister kit.
I never imaged that kind of progress 30 years ago ...

The 1/32 Fouga Magister project is still steadily progressing.
The realisation of the instruction booklet is a small nightmare, and - aside the decal design - is the main reason for the delay of the release
