Since the "decals" for the Goonies were printed on opaque sticker stock, I'm thinking you could print them on semigloss or gloss presentation paper - that paper is thicker and has a higher brightness than standard label stock. The result should be a better saturation of the ink and should look pretty good (that's why I use presentation paper for my wraps - the color is so much better than anything printed on regular paper, label stock or card stock). You could then cut them out with a hobby knife and just glue them to the painted rocket. A final shot of clear gloss will seal the ink and help keep the "decals" in place.
