Default I think that you would need

something to protect the paper decals. I always use either Beenutt or Raidermike for my decals. They are the waterslide ones like the ones that go on model cars.

If you make your own decals, you need to spray them with "Decal Bonder" which bonds the ink and keeps it from running, etc. Next step depends on the paint you use. If you used enamel you can just go ahead and put the decals on. If you used acrylics, you should spray them with a clear coat spray (make sure it's non-yellowing) first to protect the paint. You will need to have "Decal Set" which bonds the decal to the figure. Then spray again with clear coat.

Default Time for decals

After I have painted my squad.I need exacto knife,paper to put on decals so my hand dont rub the decals,solva set or micro set,some water and a tooth pic.I usally put a little sovent on area before and after.I use a tooth pic to put on decals others use tweezers.When I am done with the decals i put a light coat of modge podge over the decals and when that drys I spray on some triple thick.Then chin straps and face masks.
