The set falls into the category of modeling accessories as "self-adhesive painting masks" and is an indispensable tool for modelers who care about the highest level of visual detail.

Scope of Application and Materials

The CX445 product was developed for the precise masking of canopies, wheels, and other parts of the Fokker E.II aircraft model prior to painting with airbrush or brush. The masks are precisely cut from thin, high-quality vinyl foil, which adheres perfectly to surfaces without leaving glue residue when removed. The masks allow for quick, repeatable, and accurate demarcation of color borders, which is especially important for modelers who seek exceptional replication quality, even in such a small scale as 1/72.
