Peewit Piper J-3 Cub / NE-1 / O-59 1:72 painting masks

A set of precisely cut self-adhesive masks made of fine washi (kabuki) tape from Peewit. They allow quick, clean masking of the canopy glazing, and of the wheels and other small areas, when spraying paint with an airbrush or a brush. The material follows the shape of the frames well and leaves no adhesive residue once peeled off. The masks are cut for a specific 1:72 kit of this light aircraft.

The real subject

The Piper J-3 Cub was an American light single-engine high-wing monoplane and one of the most widespread civil and training aircraft. In military service it filled many roles as a liaison, observation and training machine: under the naval designation NE-1 as a trainer, and under the early Army designation O-59 as an observation and liaison aircraft, later redesignated into the L-4 series.

Use

• Clean and degrease the glazing, transfer the mask with tweezers and press it down along the engraved edges.
• Spray in thin coats so the paint does not creep under the edge of the mask.
• Peel the mask off shortly after the paint has dried, while the coat is still flexible.
• Suitable for sharp color edges on the frames of the extensive cockpit glazing.

Who the set is for

For modelers who want sharp color edges without the slow cutting of tape, and for builders who appreciate quick masking of glazing.

These are painting masks, not a model. The paints, the glue and the kit are not included in the package.
