1:32 Hannover Cl.II

HGW masking set – Hannover Cl.II (1:32)

A set of HGW self-adhesive masks for a model of the German two-seat Hannover Cl.II in 1:32 scale. It is neither a model nor a decal — these are pre-cut masks that are stuck onto the parts, oversprayed with paint and peeled off once dry. That gives sharp edges with none of the thickness of a decal.

The real subject

The Hannover Cl.II was a German two-seat escort and ground-attack aircraft of the First World War. It was marked by compact dimensions and the characteristic twin tailplane, which widened the gunner's field of fire.

Use

• Separate the film, stick it onto a clean surface and press the edges down.
• Spray the paint in thin coats so that it does not creep under the mask.
• Once the paint has set, carefully peel the mask off.

Who it is for

• For modelers who want to do the markings and the glazing by spraying instead of with decals.
• For clean edges and a scale thickness of paint on the finished model.

The masking set is an aftermarket accessory. The model itself, paints and glue are not included in the package.
