About product

F4U Corsair in the Korean War decals, part 2 - 1:32, Print Scale

A set of waterslide decals in 1:32 scale for models of the Vought F4U Corsair fighter as it appeared during the Korean War. It is neither a kit nor a part of a model; the package holds a printed decal sheet that you transfer onto an already painted model. The set is marked as the second part of a series that covers the subject in several parts.

The real subject

The F4U Corsair was a carrier fighter with a characteristic inverted gull wing and a large radial engine. In the Korean conflict it found work above all in the ground-attack role, where its load capacity and the toughness of its structure suited it. The markings of machines from this period tend to be plainer than the colorful schemes of the previous decade, which makes the accuracy of the small lettering matter all the more.

How to apply the decals correctly

The base has to be glossy, because on a matte coat a grayish veil known as silvering forms under the film of the decal. Separate the decal, soak it for a few seconds in lukewarm water, let it rest on the paper and only then slide it off onto a dampened spot. Move it into position with a brush and soak the excess water up with a paper tissue. On engraved lines and rivets a decal softener helps and draws the decal into the relief. Once dry, go over the whole model with a matte or satin coat so that the edges of the film disappear.

Who the set is for

  • For modelers building the Corsair in the large 1:32 scale.
  • For anyone interested in the postwar use of piston-engine aircraft.
  • For those who want to set their model apart from the scheme in the box.
  • For builders who work with a gloss base and with decal softeners.

This is a set of decals, not a kit. The model, paints and varnishes are not included in the package.

FAQ

The number of schemes and the list of the particular machines are printed on the box of the set.

No, the set can be used on its own. The series is divided into parts, but the individual parts are bought independently of one another.

Air stays trapped under the film of the decal, which happens on a matte or rough base. The answer is a gloss coat under the decal, a decal softener and a final matte coat over the top.
