The canopy masks in the Montex K48081 set are made of high-quality black matte foil, which contrasts with the canopy glazing, making precise alignment and application easier. The carefully designed adhesive layer allows for easy and safe application even on strongly curved surfaces, without the risk of paint peeling when removing the mask. The need for using liquid mask is minimized, and a world-class innovation is the inclusion of masks for the canopy frames on the inside as well!

The marking stencils (crosses, numbers, letters, roundels) are made from semi-transparent, flexible film. It features excellent adhesion and a delicate adhesive that does not harm fine paintwork. Of particular importance to modelers is the complete set of colorful marking placement diagrams, including aircraft views.

We recommend this set for both beginner and advanced modelers – this product significantly enhances the appearance of the finished model and shortens the finishing work time. We rate the difficulty of use at 1/5. It is an excellent addition for any German aviation enthusiast or anyone striving for modeling perfection without the hassle of cutting their own masks.
