About product

1:32 Gloster Gladiator Paint Mask, part two — stencils for painting

A set of die-cut self-adhesive stencils intended for spray painting a model of the British Gloster Gladiator biplane in 1:32 scale. It is neither a kit nor a set of canopy masks, but an aid for painting that replaces an applied decal with a sprayed area. The set forms the second part of a series issued in installments. The set is intended for the ICM kit.

Surface preparation and a tight edge

The success of a spray stencil stands or falls on the surface beneath it. The paint under the mask has to be fully cured, not merely dry to the touch, otherwise it will peel when the mask is removed. A smooth, slightly glossy surface is ideal, because paint creeps under the edge more easily on a rough matte one. Degrease the area before applying the stencil and run a soft tip around its whole perimeter once it is in place. In the large 1:32 scale patience pays off even along long straight edges, where the adhesive film likes to lift slightly.

The real subject

The Gloster Gladiator was the last British fighter biplane taken into service and a transitional type between the interwar and the modern fighter generation. It had an enclosed cockpit, a radial engine and a metal structure with mostly fabric covering. Besides the Royal Air Force it was used by a number of other countries, so a wide range of color schemes exists.

Who the set is for

  • Builders of the Gloster Gladiator in the large 1:32 scale
  • Modelers who want to spray the markings and avoid decals silvering
  • Anyone interested in a perfectly smooth color transition without the edge of a carrier film
  • Modelers who work with an airbrush and masking techniques

The set is a painting accessory, not a kit. The ICM base kit, paints and glue are not included in the package.

FAQ

You do not; the individual parts are sold separately. The manufacturer gives on the packaging which elements this particular part covers.

Apply the mask to a degreased and smooth surface, press the edge down firmly with a soft tip and spray several very thin coats instead of one heavy one.

Best while the paint is not yet fully dry. Remove it slowly, pulling it back over itself at a sharp angle so that the edge does not tear.

For the ICM kit in 1:32 scale. The base kit is not included in the package.
