useful hints and tips


Gluing It can be useful to do a dry run tting the parts together without glue to ensure you get it right when it comes to applying your glue. Never apply too much glue to your model as this can cause bubbles of cement to be squeezed out from bonded surfaces. Application is easier when using a cocktail stick or toothpick to apply glue. When glue has been applied the pieces can be held together to ensure optimum bonding. Masking tape, rubber bands or string can all be useful. A clothes peg is excellent for clamping wing halves and other at items together. Clear parts need to be held with suction or a clean hand and the glue applied sparingly with a cocktail stick or toothpick. Tweezers are useful for putting these into place. If there are gaps between the pieces that have been glued they can be lled with Humbrol Model Filler. When this has dried hard it can be sanded to the contour of the model with a light grade of sandpaper. Decals Cut the decals out very carefully, keeping as near to the edge of the design as possible. Immerse in Decalx for about 45 seconds or until softened. Slide the decal off its backing sheet and into position on the model using the tip of a paint brush as this reduces the chance of damage to the decal. Painting and Varnishing Parts are best painted before being glued together. Always scrape any paint from the surfaces to be glued to ensure a good bond - glues effectiveness is much reduced on a painted surface. Always stir the paint to ensure a uniform mix throughout the container. Always apply paint sparingly on important detail so as not to obscure it, or thin the paint down to apply. When painting camouage it is helpful to mark out the areas to be painted beforehand with a soft pencil. When applying several coats of paint always make sure that the previous coats have thoroughly dried, or lm wrinkling can occur. When painting a large area using a brush it is better to use a larger brush to eliminate any brush strokes. Metallics cannot be over-coated; they are designed as a topcoat product only. Occasionally deposits of white matting agent can be seen when using Matt or Satin varnish. This can be easily rectied by applying a coat of gloss varnish which will dissolve the matting agent. A coat of Matt or Satin varnish can then be re-applied. After using your tinlet of paint always clean around the neck of the container before putting the lid back on. This will give a better seal between lid and tin. Allow at least 6 hours between coats - 24 hours is preferable. When using aerosols it is better to apply several light mist coats than one heavy coat. Airbrushing Airbrushes vary in specication, so its useful to do some test spraying on spare plastic or cardboard to get the right application before spraying your model. Humbrol Enamel needs to be thinned for airbrushing: 1-2 parts paint to 1 part Enamel Thinners is usual. Remember, the thinner the paint the more coats you will have to apply. Keep the paint in the pot uniform at all times when spraying by constantly stirring. This will ensure a consistent nish. Always spray parallel to the surface being sprayed and dont spray too close - heavy deposits will cause runs and sags. Clean your airbrush immediately after use to prevent clogging by ushing through with Humbrol Enamel Thinners. If the spray becomes weak when using an aerosol power pack it is because the can is starting to chill. Stop spraying and allow the can to warm up to room temperature, or use two cans so you can easily switch between them for efciency.
