If you are going to put a spiral decal round a prop spinner you will have a huge problem if you dont do a couple of things
1 gloss varnish the spinner first make sure its nice and shiny
2 cut as much of the carrier film away from the decal as poss
3 use microset as a wetting agent on the spinner it will enable you to move the decal around to get the correct positioning
4 then give it a coat of microsol to help the decal soften and conform to the compund curves
5 if you have no micro sol use distilled vinegar or acetic acid diluted 50/50 with water
6 when dry coat with matt varnish to seal
