About product

Wheel bay plugs for the Me 262 A in 1:48 scale

This is not a kit but a masking accessory for a model of the Messerschmitt Me 262 A jet fighter in 1:48 scale. The set contains pre-cut masking shapes that fit exactly into the openings of the wheel bays and into the cutout for the nosewheel. The set is cut for the Tamiya kit, because the manufacturer offers the same item cut for another kit as well and the shape of the cutouts differs.

Why cotton wool and tape are not enough

The bays are sprayed in their own color before the camouflage goes onto the model. A plug of cotton wool or torn tape never fits exactly, presses into the corners and lets paint run under it onto the finished surface. A pre-cut plug holds the shape of the cutout, comes out in one piece after spraying and leaves the edge of the bay sharp.

How to use the plugs

Spray the wheel bays and let the paint cure. Insert the plug into the opening so that it lines up with the surrounding surface and press the edge down lightly. Spray the camouflage in several thin coats and avoid spraying directly into the gap around the plug. Once dry, take the plug out with tweezers. The same procedure also suits the stage before weathering, when a wash should not get into a freshly finished bay.

Who the set is for

  • Builders of the Me 262 in 1:48 scale who spray with an airbrush
  • Modelers who finish the wheel bays before the camouflage
  • Those who want a sharp edge to the cutout with no overspray
  • Those interested in speeding up the preparation of a model for painting

FAQ

They blank off the open bays at the moment the camouflage is sprayed onto the model. The bay keeps its own shade, no overspray or wash gets into it and the edge of the cutout stays sharp.

The plugs are cut to the shape of a particular molding. The manufacturer also lists the same item cut for another kit, so the designation of the target kit is the only piece of information by which you recognize the right variant.

The manufacturer does not state the service life. Expect the tack to drop after they are lifted off a sprayed surface, and plan them for one painting session.

No. It is an accessory for a model you already have. The kit, paints and glue are not included.
