A die-cut self-adhesive masking set for spraying British aircraft roundels in 1:48 scale from the Czech maker Armycast. It holds the shapes for the type C roundel and its C.1 variant with a yellow outer surround. The mask is stuck on a dry finish, the individual colors are sprayed in turn, and once it is lifted off a sharp, perfectly flat insignia remains, without the carrier film a decal leaves behind.
Roundels of type C and C.1 were introduced by the Royal Air Force during 1942. Compared with the older type A they have a markedly narrower white and red circle, so that the insignia reads as mostly blue and is less conspicuous from a distance. The C.1 variant adds a thin yellow surround and was used above all on the sides of the fuselage; type C without the surround appeared in the other positions. The markings stayed in use in this form for the rest of the war and in the first postwar years.
The base has to be smooth, degreased and perfectly dry; on a rough matte surface the paint will creep under. Spray thin coats at right angles to the surface and work from light shades to dark. On a curved fuselage warm the film slightly so that it settles without wrinkles. Lift it off while the finish is still fresh, which limits the risk of tearing the edge. Before lifting it off, check that all the layers have enough coverage.
It is a masking accessory, not a model. The model, paints and glue are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
