Montex K32251 SPITFIRE Mk I 1/32 is a professional set of model painting masks dedicated to the precise painting of the Supermarine Spitfire Mk I aircraft in the popular 1/32 scale. The product includes a set of high-quality masks and stencils specially designed for this British WWII fighter (1939-1945), one of the most famous aircraft in aviation history.

Product Features:

• Compatibility: masks are developed based on decals for Spitfire Mk I models from various manufacturers (according to the catalog number on the packaging).
• Materials: masks are made from black, matte vinyl foil with high contrast to the cockpit glazing; marking and insignia stencils are made from semi-transparent, flexible modeling foil.
• Precision: canopy masks are designed to minimize the use of additional masking agents such as Maskol; stencils enable professional painting of RAF roundels, numerals, chevrons, and other details following both historical documentation and model decals.
• Unique feature: the mask system allows painting of the cockpit frames both from the outside and inside – greatly enhancing the realism of the model finish in 1/32 scale.
• Safety and ease of use: the adhesive is optimized not to deform the masks on curved surfaces, does not damage the paint, and allows easy adjustment of the stencil even to difficult shapes.
