Responsibility details are not available.
A photo-etched sheet of the Hauler brand intended for completing a model of the ATZ-4-131 road tanker in 1:72 scale. The package contains metal photo-etched parts only, no plastic model, decals or paints. The exact content of the sheet is given in the instructions enclosed with the set. The set is tied to a particular kit, so check before buying that you are building the corresponding model in the same scale. The target kit is ICM / Omega-K.
The ATZ-4-131 is a Soviet road tanker for fuel built on the off-road ZiL-131 chassis with all axles driven. It served to fill the tanks of hardware directly in the field and at airfields, so besides the tank it also carries a pump, lines and reels with hoses. It is precisely these external features - brackets, grilles, steps, handles and thin sheet metal covers - that in a small scale are usually what a plastic mold cannot form finely enough.
With trucks the photo-etched parts go on before the cab is closed up and before the body is fitted, otherwise you will not get to those places later. Proceed according to the instructions, therefore, not according to the order in the plastic kit. Leave the sheet whole and cut the individual parts off it only at the moment when you are going to glue them - loose micro parts are fond of disappearing. Degrease the metal before painting and spray a thin primer on; the transition between metal and plastic then disappears under a common layer of paint. They are glued with cyanoacrylate, ideally a gel one, which gives time to settle the part.
The set is supplied unassembled and unpainted, as an accessory to a model. The base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
