Interesting - would I need to put another coat of oil over the decal once it's on? Wasn't planning on lacquering this neck.
Those decals are so incredibly thin so it's imperative that only the lightest of dusting coats are applied over the decal to avoid it shrinking and wrinkling.
6 or 7 coats did it for me.

If so try it out on a piece of Tru oiled scrap wood first.

I once sprayed the first coat of clear slightly too wet, but not what you would call "wet" and the decal wrinkled as it started to dry.
I don't recommend it but as I've not tried it I don't know for sure.
Surely you can oil and apply the test piece to something around the house? A cd /dvd case maybe?

With Rothko and Frost decals, if you apply tru oil (or any other finish) over the decal manually, the ink rubs off.
I found out the hard way...
You can still do this, sand the oil off the headstock first.
