Painting masks, is an accessory that facilitates the work of modelers who paint with an airbrush.

They protect transparent elements in the model (such as the cabin, headlights, etc.) from paint, often also wheel caps. The masks are pre-cut to the shape of the parts from a particular model - the information on which kit they fit is on the package. It is worth noting whether the selected masks cover all the glazing, or whether the center of the glazing will need to be additionally protected with a maskol-type liquid. Masks for painting can be cut on self-adhesive film or on material resembling self-adhesive paper masking tape. Depending on the manufacturer and the kit, the sheet may also contain elements for masking the inside of the glazing.
