Product description

The Montex SM72370 set is intended for modelers who value precision and historical accuracy when assembling and painting aircraft models in the popular 1/72 scale. The set features high-quality Mini Mask masks that allow you to paint cockpit windows—including from the inside, which is an innovative solution enabling a realistic recreation of the interior. The set also includes flexible Maxi Mask and Super Mask stencils for national, tactical, and functional markings that adhere precisely to original historical sources.

The masks are made from specially selected foils: the black foil for canopies ensures excellent visibility during application, providing good contrast with the plastic glazing, while the semi-transparent foil for markings makes it easy to perfectly fit the stencils even on curved surfaces of the fuselage or wings. The strong yet gentle adhesive protects the painted surface and prevents deformation or paint peeling.

This product is an excellent choice for both beginner and intermediate modelers as well as British aviation enthusiasts—it saves time by reducing the need for liquid masks and repeated touch-ups. Thanks to the pictorial instructions and perfectly fitted stencils, even less experienced hobbyists can achieve a satisfying, realistic end result.

The Montex SM72370 set not only enhances the quality and realism of the Percival P-50 model's finish, but also makes the work easier for modelers, while ensuring the highest level of protection for painted surfaces. This product is highly recommended for any fan of precise model aircraft craftsmanship from the pre-WWII era.
