Fejlfinding af almindelige problemer
Encountering challenges during assembly is common. Here are some tips:
- Dele, der ikke passer: If parts do not fit perfectly, gently sand the edges or contact points. Dry-fitting before gluing can prevent this.
- Painting Difficulties: For crisp lines, use high-quality masking tape. Apply multiple thin coats of paint rather than one thick coat to avoid brush marks and maintain detail.
- Decal Issues: If decals do not adhere well or silver, ensure the surface is glossy. Use decal setting solutions to help them conform and eliminate air bubbles.
