1:48 Su-7 BKL / BMK mask (for OEZ, KP, Kopro, Směr)

Omask 1:48 Su-7 BKL/BMK – glazing painting mask

A set of precisely shaped self-adhesive masks for painting the cockpit frames and the other clear parts of a model of the Soviet Su-7 fighter-bomber in 1:48 scale. It is not a kit nor an airframe part but a painting aid that makes masking the canopy frames faster and more exact when spraying.

The real subject

The Su-7 Fitter was a single-seat supersonic fighter-bomber from the Sukhoi design bureau of the turn of the 1950s and 1960s. It was marked by a strongly swept wing and a powerful jet engine; the versions designated BKL and BMK were adapted for operation from poorer runways. The aircraft served with a number of Eastern Bloc air forces.

Use

• Stick the masks onto clean, degreased glazing and press the edges down carefully.
• Spray the frames first in the interior color, then in the top shade of the airframe.
• Once the paint is dry, lift the masks off carefully; the breaks stay crisp and clean.
• The material follows the curve of the canopy without the edges lifting.

Who it is for

It will be valued by modelers who want clean cockpit frames without the lengthy cutting of tape, and by anyone who wants to save themselves the most laborious part of masking on this type.

The mask holds no paint and no glue; it serves only for masking while spraying. The model, paints and other accessories are not included in the package.
