Paint masks – convenient and precise solution

Paint masks are helpful accessories for modelers using airbrushes. They protect transparent parts (such as canopies and lights) and often also wheel hubs. These masks are pre-cut to match the shapes of specific kit parts – packaging always specifies which model they fit.

It’s worth checking if the masks cover the entire canopy or if the center must be protected using a liquid mask. Paint masks can be made from self-adhesive foil or paper-like masking tape. Special Hobby uses high-quality self-adhesive masking paper that sticks well and removes cleanly without damaging painted surfaces.
