1:24 Porsche 962 C - Marukatsu LM 1989 Decals Set

Porsche 962 C Marukatsu LM 1989, decals 1:24 (Studio27)

Water-slide decals in 1:24 scale from the Japanese brand Studio27. They reproduce the complete livery of the Porsche 962 C in the colors of the Marukatsu sponsor as it started in the twenty-four-hour race at Le Mans in 1989: sponsor lettering, race numbers and small markings. The print has fine registration and the minimum of carrier film, and a placement diagram is usually enclosed.

The real subject and the livery

The Porsche 962 C was the leading Group C prototype with a turbocharged flat-six, which dominated endurance racing in the second half of the 1980s. Marukatsu was one of the private entries at Le Mans in 1989, with a striking Japanese sponsor livery that sets this car apart from the other 962 C versions.

Applying the decals

• Coat the surface with gloss clear coat, so that the decal adheres well and no silvering bubbles form.
• Dip the decal briefly in lukewarm water and slide it off the backing onto the moistened spot.
• Adjust the position and pull it down onto the shapes with softening and setting solutions.
• Once dry, spray over it with protective clear coat to match the gloss of the car.

Who the set is for

• Modelers of Group C prototypes and fans of Le Mans.
• Collectors of Japanese liveries of the Porsche 962 C.
• Builders who want a particular version from 1989.

This is a standalone decal set, not a kit. The car model, paints and glue are not included in the package.
