Salmson 2A2 Painting Masks 1:48 is a set of masking stencils for spraying, neither a kit nor decals. It serves to paint a model of this French two-seat aircraft precisely.
Responsibility details are not available.
This item is not a model or a set of parts; it is a set of masking stencils from the Greek manufacturer GasPatch models intended for building the Salmson 2A2 aircraft in 1:48 scale. The masks are applied to the surface, sprayed over with paint and removed once it has dried, so a sharp transition appears with no lifted edges and without the glossy film that often remains with decals. The result is more resistant to abrasion than a decal and from close up it looks like a real finish.
The Salmson 2A2 was a French two-seat observation and reconnaissance biplane of the end of the First World War. It was powered by a water-cooled Salmson radial engine and the machine was built in large numbers; besides French units it was used by other states as well and license production took place in Japan. It is precisely this wide service that means different national insignia and unit markings appeared on the machines.
The surface under the mask has to be smooth, clean and free of grease, ideally coated with gloss clear. Lay the stencil on exactly and press the edges down carefully so that paint cannot flow under them. Spray in several very thin coats and above all perpendicular to the surface, not at a sharp angle. Remove the mask while the paint has only just set, not after it has cured completely, and do it slowly, at a sharp angle to the surface.
Paints, clear coat and the kit are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
