About product

A masking set for the road wheels of the A13 cruiser tank, 1:35 scale

The set belongs among accessories for painting, not among kits. It sets the boundary on a wheel between the face of the wheel and the rubber tire and is cut for the kit from the Bronco company. The vehicle has large road wheels, on which the transition between wheel and tire is clearly visible on a finished model, so a clean boundary pays off.

The order of painting: rubber or wheel

The usual sequence is to start with the dark shade of the tire, let it dry, cover it with the mask and spray the base color of the vehicle over it. There are two reasons for that. A darker shade is covered better by a lighter one than the other way around, and any hint of color that gets under the margin of the mask will blend with the shadow at the edge of the tire instead of creating a light rim. The second argument is practical: the base color of the vehicle is sprayed over the whole lower structure anyway, so you can spray the wheels together with it and do not have to come back to them.

Step-by-step procedure

  • Assemble, clean up and degrease the wheels before the first pass.
  • Spray the shade of the tire and let it cure properly.
  • Apply the mask concentrically with the hub and press the margin down around the whole perimeter.
  • Spray over it with the base color of the vehicle in thin coats and then take the mask off.

Who the set is for

For modelers of the kit mentioned who want their running gear finished in a single painting pass and do not want to complete the tires with a brush. Even a less experienced modeler can manage the procedure, and it is enough to keep to the drying between layers.

Paints, thinners and the kit are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

The usual sequence is the dark shade of the tire first, then the mask once dry and the base color of the vehicle over it. A lighter color covers a darker one better.

Yes, that is exactly why the wheel is left for later. Once the masks are applied, the wheels go through the same pass as the rest of the lower structure.

The set is cut for the kit from the Bronco company. With another kit it is necessary to verify that the wheels have the same diameter.

Until the surface is firm to the touch. On paint that has not dried through, a mask adheres too well and can damage it when lifted.
