WetFX Decal & Shader Kit

How does this work? There is no tutorial or anything with this product.  I have tried to add the decal to a model and nothing.  There is nothing when I render it and it does not seem to change anything on the texture?  How does this even work?  Please help.

Very quickly,

1. load your model
2. texture your model
3. apply the decal to the model
4. apply the appropriate shader to the decal
5. light the scene
6. switch the preview viewport  (I was using the shaded texture) to Nvidia Iray viewport
7. position the decal so it just almost grazes the surface
8. position and scale the decal
9. return to your favorite preview method and render!

The decal is like a decal so it can't sit in the center of your model; it has to be on the surface... It is invisible until rendered so you have to use a preview method that does a little Iray rendering.  It does cling like a decal so if you are just above the surface, it will wrap around the topography like film.

Okay.  I figured it out.  I wish they added a tutorial or at least instructions.
