Opsætning og montering

Before starting, ensure you have the necessary tools and materials, which typically include:

• Plastic model cement (e.g., polystyrene cement)
• Hobbykniv eller sprue-skærere
• Sandpaper or sanding sticks (various grits)
• Pincet
• Paint (acrylic or enamel, as recommended by Tamiya) and brushes or airbrush
• Afdækningstape

Follow the numbered steps in the included instruction booklet. Each step illustrates the parts required and their correct placement. Pay close attention to:

• Del identifikation: Match part numbers on the sprues to those in the instructions.
• Cutting Parts: Carefully cut parts from the sprue using cutters or a hobby knife. Avoid pulling or twisting, which can damage parts.
• Rengøring af dele: Remove any excess plastic (flash) from the parts using a hobby knife or sandpaper.
• Test montering: Always test fit parts before applying cement to ensure proper alignment.
• Cement Application: Apply a small amount of cement to one surface, press parts together, and hold briefly until the bond sets. Avoid excessive cement, which can damage plastic.
• Maleri: Refer to the painting guide for recommended colors. Paint small parts before assembly where indicated. Allow paint to dry completely between coats and before handling.
• decals: Apply decals to a glossy surface. Use decal setting solution for better adhesion and to conform to curved surfaces.

Finishing and Display

Once assembly and painting are complete, consider applying a clear coat (gloss, semi-gloss, or matte) to protect the paint and decals. Ensure the model is fully dry before handling or displaying.

Display your finished model in a clean, dust-free environment, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures, to preserve its appearance over time.

Opretholdelse

To maintain the appearance of your Tamiya model:

• Støvning: Gently dust the model with a soft brush or a can of compressed air. Avoid abrasive cloths.
• Rensning: Tør eventuelt af med en let damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or solvents, as these can damage paint and plastic.
• Opbevaring: Hvis modellen opbevares, skal den placeres i en beskyttende kasse for at forhindre støvophobning og utilsigtet skade.

Fejlfinding

Common issues and solutions during model assembly:

• Dele, der ikke passer: Ensure all flash is removed. Test fit again. If still tight, gently sand the mating surfaces. If loose, apply a small amount of filler or a thicker cement.
• Malingsproblemer:
  • Uneven Coat: Ensure paint is properly thinned and applied in thin, even layers.
  • Bubbles/Orange Peel: May indicate paint is too thick or applied too heavily. Adjust thinning or application technique.
  • Dust in Paint: Ensure your work area is clean and dust-free.
• Decal Silvering: This occurs when air is trapped under the decal. Apply decals to a glossy surface and use decal setting solution to help them conform and eliminate air.
• Broken Parts: Small breaks can often be repaired with plastic cement. For larger breaks, consider using a stronger adhesive like CA glue (super glue) and reinforcing with a small piece of plastic if possible.
