Is this a die-cast metal model?
It is constructed from composite materials designed to offer superior detail and finish quality compared to traditional heavy die-cast.

Troubleshooting
Visible dust on the engine or interior components
Use a low-pressure air duster or a very soft, clean artist brush to gently remove debris without touching delicate parts.
Model feels slightly loose on the display stand
Check the mounting surface to ensure it is perfectly level; composite models have specific weight distributions that require stable footing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your AUTOart model, handle it only by the chassis or heavy structural points, avoiding delicate exterior trim or mirrors. When displaying, keep the model out of direct sunlight to prevent UV damage to the paint and plastic components. Cleaning should be done exclusively with a soft, dry microfiber cloth; avoid chemical cleaners or abrasive materials, as these can strip the authentic factory finish or damage the composite surface.
