About product

Eduard masks Spitfire Mk. I 1:72

This die-cut self-adhesive Eduard masking set in 1:72 scale is intended for a plastic model of the British Supermarine Spitfire fighter in the early Mk. I version. It is not a kit or a model in its own right, but a set of accurately shaped masks in thin yellow masking tape (kabuki). The masks will be appreciated by modelers who want sharp paint edges on the glazing, the wheels and the camouflage fields without lengthy cutting of tape by hand.

The real subject

The Supermarine Spitfire is a British single-engine fighter of the Second World War with a Merlin V12 engine and a characteristic elliptical wing. The Mk. I version was the first production variant and bore the main weight of the fighting during the Battle of Britain. Together with the Hurricane it became a symbol of the British defense. Early machines still had a framed canopy.

Use and tips

Degrease the glazing of the framed canopy and let it dry. Lift the masks off the backing and lay them on the frame of the windscreen and the sliding section, pressing them into the edges. Spray the paint with an airbrush in thin coats. The masks for the wheels separate the tire from the hub. Once the paint has dried, peel them off carefully at a sharp angle, so that the fresh coat is not damaged.

Who the set is for

  • Modelers of British fighters of the Second World War
  • Those who want a sharp canopy frame without cutting
  • Builders who paint with an airbrush
  • Anyone who wants crisp masking of the wheels when painting

The package contains only the masks. The model, paints, glue and decals are not included, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

No. It is a set of self-adhesive masks in 1:72 scale. It serves to mask the glazing, the wheels and the camouflage fields while spraying, and neither the model itself nor paints are in the package.

The masks are cut from thin yellow masking tape, which follows the shapes well and, once the paint has dried, peels off cleanly without leaving adhesive behind.

The masks are shaped for one particular kit, because the dimensions of the glazing frames differ between manufacturers. Check that they fit your model.
