About product

Quickwheel 1:35 M8 Greyhound, M20 (Tamiya) - wheel mask

A self-adhesive masking set for painting the wheels of the M8 Greyhound and M20 armored cars in 1:35 scale, cut for the kit from Tamiya. The mask covers the tire, the hub is oversprayed in the vehicle color and the boundary stays circular. It is neither a kit nor a replacement part.

How to organize the work when there are several wheels

A six-wheeled armored car is the typical case where it pays to stop working wheel by wheel and switch to a series. First prepare all the wheels at once: clean up the parting seams, remove the remains of the gates and wash the surface if need be. Then spike them on skewers or toothpicks stuck into a piece of polystyrene, so that they stand freely side by side and can be turned without being touched with your fingers. Spray the base shade of the rubber on all the wheels in one run, which guarantees the same tone; as soon as the paint is mixed twice, two wheels never come out exactly alike. Apply the masks one after another as well and only then move on to the vehicle color. The holder with the skewers also solves the drying: no wheel lies flat on a surface and none sticks to it. Handle the spare wheel, if the model has one, in the same series so that it does not stand out in shade.

Recommended procedure

Rubber, drying through, mask, vehicle color in two passes, lifting the mask at the setting stage. Fit the wheels on the model last.

FAQ

Spike them on skewers or toothpicks stuck into a piece of polystyrene. The wheels stand freely side by side, can be turned without being touched and do not lie on a surface while drying.

Paint mixed twice never comes out exactly the same. In one run all the wheels and any spare share an identical shade.

The set is listed for the M8 Greyhound as well as the M20 from Tamiya, as both vehicles share the same running gear with wheels. Even so, check the match against the parts before gluing.
