I finally ran out of Champ decal setting solution. I am heartbroken.

I just love that stuff. :'(

I’ve used the Testors solution and it seemed to do what it needed to do. I’ve not used it on Champ decals, however, just on Ted Culotta’s decals.

I still have a little bit left, don't know what I will do when I run out. Although somebody gave me three bottles of Testors Decal Setting solution and I did use it once and it seemed to work fine.

There are probably a number of fluids that work with (1) some decals and
(2) some paint finishes. Since there are so many different kinds of decals
and paints now, there's probably not a solution that applies in every case.

For example I am decaling a car now that I painted with Accupaint and I'm
using Microscale decals, and when I used a combination of MicroSet, MicroSol
and Solvaset, I got some 'water spots' on the paint finish - I'm guessing it
went after the paint. For the other side of the car I didn't use any of the
MicroSet, and ... no spots!
