About product

1:24 decal sheet, BMW 318i, Motorola, Macau Guia Race 1994 (Studio27)

This product is not a kit: it is a sheet of water-transferred decals from the Japanese brand Studio27 in 1:24 scale. It contains a decal sheet and instructions for the placement, nothing else. For it to be of any use to you, you need a finished model of the car, specifically the BMW 318i plastic kit from Hasegawa (it was released in several versions). Paints, clear coats and glue are not in the package.

The real subject

The BMW 318i (E36) was a touring car, that is a racing special built on a production sedan, a category which filled the grandstands all over the world in the 1990s. Motorola is the name of a sponsor (American electronics and telecommunications, famous for pagers at the time), not a driver or a version of the car. In the Guia Race in Macau in 1994 cars in the Motorola colors started as a separate private team alongside the works Schnitzer stable, which entered a 318i of its own at the time, and it was the works car that mastered the race: Joachim Winkelhock won in Macau in 1994.

The Guia circuit is a street course run along the ordinary streets of Macau. Concrete walls line the course with practically no run-off areas, the racers throw themselves from the fast coastal section into tight corners climbing up the hill and the width of the course in some places barely allows overtaking. A mistake here does not end with a trip into the gravel, but with contact with a wall. That is exactly why Guia is taken as one of the most demanding circuits in the world and why a victory here carries a peculiar weight in a driver resume.

Tips for applying the decals

The most important rule goes: apply them to gloss clear coat. A matte base is microscopically rough, air stays under the decal and the marking starts to silver, which is by far the most common mistake modelers make. The sponsor markings are large and they run across the curved fenders and sills, so you practically cannot do without decal softener; with it the membrane is drawn to the shape and the edges disappear. Next comes clear coat and gentle polishing, which gives the body that typical wet shine of a racing car. And do not forget that the sheet does not cover the whole area of the body, as you have to spray the basic color of the car yourself and it has to match the decals in shade.

Who the sheet is for

  • Modelers building the BMW 318i from Hasegawa in 1:24 scale
  • Fans of touring cars of the 1990s and of street circuits
  • Collectors who already have (or are getting ready for) the Watson's version from Macau 1993, which exists as well and forms a natural pair with this sheet
  • Modelers looking for an accessory, not a complete model

This is a decal sheet, not a model. The kit of the car, paints, clear coats, softener and glue are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

No. The package contains only a decal sheet and instructions. The BMW 318i 1:24 kit (Hasegawa) has to be bought separately.

A different year and a different sponsor. Watson's is the livery from Macau 1993, Motorola from the 1994 running. They are two separate sheets and cannot be interchanged.

With large sponsor markings across the curved fenders it is practically a necessity, as without it a decal wrinkles or lifts on a curve. The base has to be glossy.

A touring car race on the street circuit in Macau. It runs along ordinary streets between concrete walls without run-off areas, which makes it one of the most demanding courses in the world.
