Troubleshooting

Parts do not fit together correctly.

Ensure you are using the correct parts as indicated in the instruction manual. Check for any excess plastic ('flash') on the sprue gates and carefully trim it away with a hobby knife.

Glue marks are visible on the plastic.

Use plastic cement sparingly and avoid excessive application. If marks appear, try gently sanding the area and repainting if necessary. For clear parts, use a glue specifically designed for clear plastic.

Paint is not adhering well.

Ensure the plastic surface is clean and free of grease or dust before painting. Consider using a primer suitable for plastic models for better adhesion.

Decals are difficult to apply or tear.

Apply decals to a gloss surface for easier positioning. Use decal setting solution to help them conform to surface details. Handle decals with tweezers and allow them to dry completely before handling the model further.
