Ferrari F60 (2009) Multimedia Kit in 1:20 scale from the Japanese maker Studio27. It is a real kit, but a multimedia and resin one — intended for experienced modelers, and not a plastic kit or a set of decals.
Responsibility details are not available.
A kit of the Ferrari F60 Formula 1 single-seater of the 2009 season in 1:20 scale from the maker Studio27. The designation Multimedia Kit means that the model is not made of injection-molded plastic: it combines resin castings for the body and the main parts, white metal for the suspension and small structural elements, photo-etched brass sheet for thin details, rubber tires and decals. It is a full kit, but a demanding one — for the advanced. The exact make-up of the particular package is not stated here.
The F60 was the Ferrari stable's car for the 2009 season and the first Ferrari fitted with the KERS system (kinetic energy recovery). The year 2009 brought a major change of the rules and for Ferrari it was one of the worst seasons of the modern era — in the end fourth place in the constructors' cup. Beware of a widespread error: the F60 did win a race — Kimi Räikkönen took victory with it in the Belgian Grand Prix at Spa-Francorchamps. The second driver was Felipe Massa, who did not finish the season after a serious accident at the Hungarian Grand Prix, when a spring that had come loose from another car struck him; in the remaining races substitute drivers took his place.
The most important advice to start with: wash the resin parts thoroughly before painting — warm water, detergent, a soft brush, then let them dry completely. Mold release agent stays on the castings, and if it is not removed, the paint will not grip and will peel once dry. It is the most common reason a resin model fails. Next: resin cannot be glued with thin cement for plastic — you need cyanoacrylate glue. The parts have no pins or sockets, so dry fit, sand and fit everything together. Cut the casting blocks off with a saw, not with nippers — resin cracks. Resin dust is harmful to health: sand wet and with a respirator. Bend the photo-etched parts with a bender, not with your fingers. Apply primer (filler) under the paint, a gloss clear coat under the decals and the final varnish according to the look you want.
The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
