Photo-etched parts are one of the most popular upgrades for plastic model kits.

This production method enables the creation of extremely small and delicate details that are not achievable with traditional injection molding. They are often used to improve instrument panels, brackets, racks, intake grilles, and other structural components. In short-run kits, photo-etched parts may even be essential. Most of them require folding along etched lines to achieve the correct shape.

Photo-etched parts are made from metal alloys – most commonly brass, nickel-silver, or stainless steel. These components must be attached using cyanoacrylate glue (“super glue”), as regular plastic model adhesives do not work on metal.
