  • Super Mask: canopy masks and marking templates, recreated based on original photographs and archival materials. They also include a layout diagram showing the placement of markings on each side of the aircraft.
• Material: highest quality self-adhesive PVC film. The canopy film is matte black, making application easier. Marking masks are semi-transparent, gently adhesive and extremely flexible.
• Innovations: The masks also enable the painting of the cockpit's internal frames from the inside – a unique functionality in the modelling accessories market.
• Historical purpose: The set has been developed specifically for the P-51D Mustang – one of the most famous American fighter aircraft of World War II. The P-51 was extensively used by the USA from 1943 to 1945 in both Europe and the Pacific, escorting B-17 and B-24 bombers and attacking ground targets.
• Manufacturer: Montex – a renowned Polish manufacturer of modelling masks.

Montex mask sets are famous for their ease of use – they adhere perfectly, do not leave adhesive residue, and prevent paint from seeping underneath. They were created to minimize the use of liquid mask, greatly simplifying and speeding up the painting process even on complex curved surfaces.

Difficulty level: 2/5. The set is recommended both for beginner modellers and experienced detailers who value historical accuracy as well as time and paint savings. It is an essential accessory when working on P-51D Mustang replicas in 1/48 scale. Thanks to Montex masks, the final result will be precise and professional – worthy of any display!
