Troubleshooting
Parts do not fit together snugly
Ensure all excess plastic 'flash' is trimmed from the edges of the parts using a hobby knife before attempting to glue.
Decals are not adhering properly
Ensure the surface is clean and free of oil. Using a dedicated decal setting solution can help the stickers conform to the model's curves.
Glue marks appearing on visible areas
Apply glue sparingly using a fine-tipped applicator to prevent seepage onto the exterior surfaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before beginning, ensure you have a clean, well-lit workspace and the necessary tools, including sprue cutters, hobby knives, and high-quality model glue. Because this is a plastic assembly kit, standard model cements work best. To maintain the kit, avoid using harsh chemicals on the finished surfaces; a simple dusting with a soft, dry brush is sufficient to keep the model looking its best. Store finished models away from direct sunlight to prevent the plastic and decals from fading or becoming brittle over time.
