About this deal

The A-Stand range offers a complete solution for the modeller: it includes an extensive colour chart of metallic and transparent tones, as well as primers and varnishes.

They also provide a tough and durable finish once dry, allowing the application of any other lacquer, enamel weathering products, or acrylic paint on top without issue. Whether you want to add a touch of color to your walls, create geometric designs, or even use it for DIY projects like wall stencils or temporary wallpaper, our masking tape kit is the perfect choice. I wouldn’t ever advise anyone to use tools or materials they weren’t comfortable with or legally entitled to use. All of our model masking tapes can be applied to a variety of curved or flat surfaces and are easy to remove after you have finished painting. When using these types of tapes for curves, it is important to press down firmly on the material as you apply it, making sure that it has fully adhered to the surface.The modeling version of these types of strips is used to cover parts of your figures, busts, or dioramas while you are painting them, usually with an airbrush. Our Masking Tape is produced using a light-medium weight adhesive which is designed to peel away cleanly leaving minimal residue behind*. Both of them are used for covering areas that should not be painted, but they are different products with different properties and uses. You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. Ideal for precise and intricate masking for modelling, airbrushing, arts, craft, hobby and smaller DIY tasks.

It's also important to use a sharp blade or scissors to cut the strip so that it follows the curve of the surface.Take a look at what I did with this Airfix 1/48 Tiger Moth – you can apply these same methods to nearly any kit you paint. It is made in a variety of widths too, so it is great to have several widths on hand- makes masking a model of varying shapes easy, without having to cut as many pieces as you would need from wider gp tapes. The tape is easy to remove after painting over and won’t lift the paint or leave any adhesive behind.

I try not to use the pieces with the side ends of the tape as they would likely have dust or fibres. Ultimately the easiest and most accurate way to mask a canopy is to use a die-cut masking set from someone like the good people at eduard. This tape will not absorb paint color, or leave unsightly marks, making it perfect for use with painted or unpainted scale plastic or radio control models.

I cut it into ultra thin strips, it will conform to and hold a very tight curve, haven't encountered residue remaining, clean line separation.
