1:48 Beaufort Mk. I TFace are double-sided painting masks from Eduard for the 1:48 model of the Bristol Beaufort Mk. I torpedo bomber: they mask the glazing from the outside and from the inside.
Responsibility details are not available.
A set of pre-cut self-adhesive masks for the glazing of the Bristol Beaufort Mk. I model in 1:48 scale. The TFace designation means that the sheet holds masks for both sides of the clear parts, the outer one and the inner one. On glazed canopies with a lot of framing that is a fundamental difference: you can spray the frames in the interior color from the inside and in the camouflage shade from the outside, so once the masks come off the glazing looks the way it does on the real aircraft. These are not decals and not parts of the model.
The masks are die-cut in a carrier film; lift them off with tweezers and stick them straight onto the clear part. Degrease the glazing first and let it dry thoroughly. Lay the segments so that they line up exactly with the engraved framing and press them down around the whole edge with a soft tool. On the glazed nose and the turret it pays to work one area at a time and to check the fit from a distance as you go. Apply the inner masks before you glue the clear part into the fuselage, because after that you cannot reach it. If need be, trim the edge with a fresh blade along the outline of the frame.
The order is logical: mask the inside first, spray the frames in the interior shade, glue the part in and mask it from the outside, then spray the exterior colors together with the whole airframe. Apply thin coats, because a heavy coat leaves a ridge at the edge of the mask that peels off when the mask is lifted. Take the masks off while the paint is freshly dry; raise a corner with tweezers and pull slowly at a sharp angle. Remove any adhesive residue with a cotton swab moistened with alcohol, not with an aggressive thinner.
The set contains the painting masks only. The model, paints and thinner are not included in the package. The masks are cut for a particular kit of that type and scale, so check before buying that it matches the one you have.
