Glue is not holding parts together

Check that the surfaces to be glued are clean and free from mold release agents or paint. Ensure you are using an appropriate plastic cement and applying it correctly. Allow adequate drying time.

Paint is not adhering well

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This is a plastic model kit requiring assembly. Begin by carefully cutting out parts from the sprue using a hobby knife or sprue cutters. Follow the instruction manual meticulously for the correct assembly sequence. Plastic cement or glue specifically designed for model kits is essential for joining parts.

Compatibility: The 1/35 scale is a standard for military models, making it compatible with many other 1/35 scale vehicles, figures, and diorama accessories from various manufacturers. However, compatibility is generally limited to items within the same scale.

Care: Once assembled and painted, the model should be handled with care to avoid damaging delicate parts. Keep the finished model away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures, which can cause paint to fade or plastic to warp. Cleaning can be done gently with a soft brush or a dry microfiber cloth to remove dust.
