About product

The real subject

The battleship Missouri with hull number BB-63 entered service in 1944 and headed straight for the Pacific. She covered the raids on the Japanese islands and took part in the operations off Iwo Jima and Okinawa, where in April 1945 a suicide aircraft struck her side without causing any serious damage. The wartime form of the ship differs considerably from the later, modernized one, and it is exactly the wartime form this set is aimed at.

What you are getting

Masking parts for a model of the Missouri in 1:350 scale. A mask is stuck onto an area that is to stay in a different shade while spraying, and once it is removed a sharp boundary is left of a kind you cannot achieve with a transition painted by hand. Which areas the set covers and in what order they are applied are in the manufacturer's instructions; lay the parts out before sticking them on and compare them with the model.

How to work with the masks

  • Degrease the surface before masking and let it dry completely.
  • Stick the mask on before spraying and press down above all its edges.
  • Apply the paint in thin coats from above, not at an angle under the edge of the mask.
  • Take the mask off as soon as the paint has flashed off; lift a corner with the tip of a blade.
  • Wipe any adhesive residue off after removal, so that none stays under the varnish.

Who it is for

The set is for builders of ship models who care about clean transitions between shades and do not want to mask complicated outlines laboriously with tape. It is useful above all where the deck has a different shade from the surrounding areas. The ship model, paints and glue are not supplied, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

No. It is a masking set for ship models; the model itself is sold separately, unless stated otherwise.

The list of parts is in the manufacturer's instructions. Lay them out before sticking them on and compare them with the model, so that you know where each belongs.

Always before the paint is sprayed. Once the finish has flashed off they are taken off carefully, so that the edge stays sharp.
