Ultra Thin Aluminum Stickers (2pcs.)

Tamiya ultra-thin aluminium stickers (2 pcs.)

The ultra-thin aluminium stickers are part of Tamiya's Finishing Materials series. They are only approx. 0.01 mm thick, so they hug finely moulded surfaces closely, and they can also be used as masking stickers for sharp colour transitions. The product is mainly recommended for experienced modellers.

How to do it, e.g. on window frames: finish any modifications and painting, and let everything dry. Cut out the sticker (with its backing sheet) slightly larger than the area. Lightly attach partly folded masking tape to the aluminium surface and peel the sticker off the backing sheet. Position it, press lightly with a finger or cotton bud, and slowly remove the tape. Press from the centre outwards with a cotton bud, carefully so the shiny surface is not damaged. Cut along the outer edge of the frame with a design knife, and slowly remove the excess pieces with tweezers.
