Troubleshooting
Parts don't fit together well
Ensure you have removed all sprue gates and excess plastic cleanly. Check the instructions to confirm you are using the correct parts in the correct orientation. Minor adjustments with a hobby knife or sandpaper may be necessary.
Paint not adhering properly
Ensure the plastic surface is clean and free of oils or dust before painting. Use a primer specifically designed for plastic models. Ensure paints are thoroughly mixed and applied in thin coats.
Small parts are difficult to handle
Use hobby tweezers for picking up and placing small parts. Consider attaching small parts to larger sections before the glue fully cures.
