Troubleshooting

Model parts don't fit together properly.

Ensure you are using the correct parts and that any mold lines or excess plastic have been removed. Consider dry-fitting the parts before gluing.

Paint is not adhering to the model.

Make sure the model has been properly primed before painting. Use thin coats of paint and allow each coat to dry before applying the next.

Glue is not bonding the plastic.

Ensure you are using plastic glue, not super glue. Make sure the surfaces are clean and free of paint before applying glue. Hold parts together firmly until the glue sets.
