A Must-Have Masking Set for the 1/72 B-36 Peacemaker
Hello to all Kit Masx fans!
Today, I want to share my experience working on a 1/72 scale model of a truly iconic aircraft—the B-36 Peacemaker. This legendary strategic bomber is massive, and the model kit (originally by Monogram, copyrighted in 1980, later reboxed as kit 04632) is equally impressive in size.
Thankfully, Kit Masx has released an outstanding masking set (72-013V) specifically designed for this beast of a plane. The set, made from high-quality Oramask 810 flexible vinyl, is meticulously engineered and comes with three sheets packed with an incredible number of pre-cut parts. Each piece is perfectly designed, clearly labeled, and adheres wonderfully to the model’s surfaces.
The set makes it easy to paint intricate details, including:
> The complex nose and cockpit frames.
> All 10 main landing wheels.
> Circular masks for the rounded windows along the fuselage.
Additionally, the set includes extra small triangular masks as spares, which come in handy if needed. Applying the vinyl masks was straightforward, and the results were fantastic. Thanks to this set, I was able to save time and effort on these tedious parts, allowing me to focus on the next steps of the build with ease.
For its reasonable price and the convenience it offers, I highly recommend Kit Masx’s 72-013V set for anyone building the B-36 Peacemaker. It’s a game-changer for scale modelers tackling such a detailed kit.

So far so good!
Received this in short order and good condition. Haven’t had a chance to use them yet but look good so far.
Wow. I couldn’t believe how easy it was to apply the mask to the canopy of my latest build. It was so smooth and easy to apply and also to peel back and try again when I needed to make slight adjustments. I’m already working on a list of other masks I’ll be ordering for the other kits I have waiting in the wings. Good job Kevin and Janelle and thanks again.

I have yet to use the mask. I have been going thru my collection and choosing which ones I would like to get.
Looking on your site I was happy to read that the vinyl have a longer shelf life per se than the tape ones .
They look good and accurate and I feel I can now proceed to starting this model.
Will keep you posted.
