Peewit Siebel Si-204 / NC.701 Martinet 1:72 - painting masks

A set of self-adhesive painting masks in thin washi (kabuki) tape from the Czech manufacturer Peewit. It serves for quick, clean masking of the extensive glazing of the flight deck and of the wheels when spraying with an airbrush or painting with a brush. The masks follow the shape of a part well, hold along the engraved edges and leave no adhesive residue once lifted. The set is cut for the Siebel Si-204 and its French counterpart the NC.701 Martinet in 1:72 scale.

The real subject

The Siebel Si-204 was a German twin-engined light transport and training aircraft of the Second World War period, typified by the glazed nose of its cockpit. After the war it was also built under license in France under the designation NC.701 Martinet, where it served for liaison and training duties for a number of years more.

Use

• Clean and degrease the glazing, transfer the mask with tweezers and press it down along the cockpit frames.
• Spray the paint in thin coats so that it does not seep under the edge of the mask.
• Lift the masks shortly after the paint has dried, while the coat is still flexible.
• The circular masks can be used for a clean coat on the tires and the centers of the wheels.

Who the set is for

For modelers who want sharp transitions of color on intricately divided glazing and on the wheels without slow cutting of tape. The set saves a marked amount of time on the extensive cockpit of this aircraft.

These are painting masks, not a model. The paints, the glue and the kit are not included in the package.
