6. דעקאַל אַפּפּליקאַטיאָן

The included decal sheet contains various markings and details to enhance the realism of your model. Follow these steps for proper application:

  1. Ensure the surface where the decal will be applied is clean, smooth, and glossy. A gloss clear coat can be applied before decals for best results.
  2. Cut out the desired decal close to its edge, but do not cut into the design.
  3. Dip the decal in lukewarm water for 10-20 seconds until it slides freely on its backing paper.
  4. Carefully slide the decal from the backing paper onto the model surface using tweezers or a soft brush.
  5. Position the decal correctly. You can use a wet brush to gently adjust its placement.
  6. Gently blot away excess water with a soft, lint-free cloth or cotton swab.
  7. For complex surfaces or to help the decal conform better, apply a decal setting solution (e.g., Micro Sol, Mr. Mark Setter). Follow the product's instructions.
  8. Allow decals to dry completely, typically 24 hours. Once dry, a matte or gloss clear coat can be applied over the entire model to protect the decals and unify the finish.

7. Maintenance and Display

Once your model is complete, proper care will ensure its longevity and appearance.

  • רייניקונג: Dust your model regularly with a soft, dry brush or a gentle air blower. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cloths, which can damage paint and decals.
  • ווייַז: Display your model in a stable, dust-free environment, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperature fluctuations. A display case is recommended to protect it from dust and accidental damage.

8. טראָובלעשאָאָטינג פּראָסט ישוז

Here are solutions to some common problems encountered during model assembly:

  • פּאַרץ ניט פּאַסיק: Ensure all flash is removed from the parts. Dry-fit carefully. If necessary, gently sand or trim contact points.
  • Gaps Between Parts: Use plastic filler putty to fill any noticeable gaps after gluing. Sand smooth once dry.
  • Decal Silvering: This occurs when air is trapped under the decal, creating a silvery appearance. Apply decal setting solution to help the decal conform and eliminate air bubbles. Puncture tiny bubbles with a sharp needle and reapply setting solution.
  • Paint Issues: Ensure surfaces are clean before painting. Apply thin coats of paint rather than one thick coat to avoid brush marks or uneven texture. Allow each coat to dry thoroughly.
