Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin assembly, ensure you have a clean, flat surface with adequate lighting to distinguish the various numbered pieces. Carefully pop the pieces out of their original foam sheets before attempting to join them. Avoid using glue or sharp implements as they may damage the material. For ongoing care, dust the completed model periodically using a soft, dry cloth or a can of compressed air. Keep the finished model in an area away from direct sunlight or extreme moisture, which could cause the foam to warp or fade over time.
