First time.

First class products and top customer service, have already ordered another set for my current build.

Great fit

These masks get the job done - they fit perfectly and they leave a nice clean edge, as one expects with Tamiya tape. Well done.

Perfect fit

The masks were a perfect fit - masking the canopy was quick and easy. The landing light and wheel masks are a nice bonus.

Monogram Kingfisher canopy mask

This mask fits the kit canopies excellently. I used a vacuform replacement for the two rear canopies and these masks had to be trimmed to fit adequately, but the Kitmasx mask was not made specifically for this so not an issue. I didn’t use the wheel masks because I used aftermarket wheels which are a different size. My order was delivered quickly from Kitmasx and you can’t beat the personal customer service from Janelle and Kevin. I’ll be using their 48-140MT national insignia masks on this model as well, so more to come during painting. Thank you Kitmasx!

Defiant masks/masx 1/72

As usual, accurate, very useful, fast shipping, great service.

Great customer service!

Excellent, and expanding line of masks for various scales. I have bought numerous 1/48, and 1/72 scale sets, and shipping has been quick from Canada to the US.
Excellent communication, and they take a personal interest in customer satisfaction.
Due to the postal service in Canada being on strike, there was a delivery delay which was out of the hands of kitmask. They reached out and offered me a complimentary mask set because of the delay, even though it wasn’t their fault!
Kitmask is rapidly becoming my go-to company for masking sets.

Foglore 202 canopy mask set

Trumpeter Douglas C-47A

Fantastic mask set go’s on easy with a little bit of weathering Model looks cool so much better than decals will buy more masks from kits masx

We're so glad you're a fan of masking over decals, Stephen. We are too! Thanks for the great review!

Amazing product!

These are the first canopy masks I've used and they worked flawlessly. I ordered the tamiya tape version, I didn't have any paint leakage at all, and they didn't leave any residue.

This is great feedback, Alec! Thank you!

Breda Ba-65 mask

I enjoyed using the Kitmasx painting mask for several reasons. Initially, I thought it would ease the difficulty of painting the extremely small bracing on the extremely small canopy and I was right, it did. There were several other advantages I had not expected. One was the using of the Tamiya masking tape. (Big thumbs up there). But the biggest surprise was finding those "panel lines" on the belly of the bird were actually belly windows which were not molded as clear and which I could now fake using black paint the the Kitmasx painting mask. Thanks guys.

Thanks for an amazing review, Alan! Glad you were able to get creative with your set!

Perfect fit

These are the best make out there, fit like it was meant for and no creeping past the frames or extra trimming, get yours ordered now!

Wow, great feedback, Gary! Thanks so much for sharing your review. We appreciate it so much!

Happy!

Excellent quality, fast service, lots of helpful installation videos. Found out about Kit Masx through 'Hammerhead Model Making' on u-tube.

Thanks for the awesome review, Bill! Brett from Hammerhead Model Making has been an incredible support to us and his videos are so enjoyable to watch. He's an excellent artist and teacher. So glad you found his videos helpful and that they led you to us!

Superior service.

Haven't actually used the masks yet because I have other models in the stash that I am working on currently. So, I am rating the purchasing experience. Kit Masx has always delivered on time and clearly puts the customer first. They successfully overcame the challenges posed by the December 2024 Canadian Postal Service strike by finding alternative shipping services that were safe, speedy and secure. Thank you.

Thanks for the great feedback on our service, Fernando! We appreciate you so much as a repeat international customer. Your support means everything to us.

First Time Buyer

I recently retired and decided to return to my favorite hobby: modeling. I was amazed at all of the amazing new techniques and products available. One thing that was always difficult was masking off canopies/windows before painting, so I was very happy to discover Kit Masx. My first order arrived promptly, especially considering the postal strike. They went out of their way to find alternative shipping options and keep me informed. I have not had a chance to use the masks yet, but they appear to be of high quality, are nicely packaged and were carefully shipped. I am looking forward to future purchases. Cheers!

Wow, Gary, thanks for the awesome feedback! We're so happy you're happy and we would love to hear what you think of the makss once you get a chance to use them.

Awesome product

Bought a mask for a Hind helicopter. The fit was perfect and I had no issues with paint getting under the mask. First time buying from Kit Masx and I’ll definitely be back for more.

This is great news, Alex! We're so glad our set worked well for you!

Nats win with help from KitMasx!

Update to my review above: I was honored to receive a second place medal in the conversion category at the 2024 IPMS-USA Nationals in Madison, WI with my Special Hobby Ju388J/Revell Ju88C kitbash project. I couldn't have made the canopy frames so clean without KitMasx! Big thank you!!!

Congrtas on your win, Larry! That's amazing! We are so grateful to be a part of your modeling adventures.

Excellent fit and a tip for narrow frames

One of my clubmates asked how I got such clean, narrow framework on the Airfix Beaufort canopies and I proudly told him about KitMasx! I also shared a tip: spray Dupli-Color CP199 clear adhesion-promoting primer as the first coat of paint, before the interior green-grey. Just spritz some into your airbrush paint cup, apply, and clean it out with lacquer thinner. Then, carefully following the instructions, apply the interior color in ten minutes (followed later by the exterior colors). This not only assures the paint sticks fast with no chipping or peeling, but also ensures a cleaner edge with no paint creep. The Tamiya tape masks stayed put even when masked over with Scotch Delicate Surface tape and blue tack. Another tip I discovered too late: you CAN glue the turret clear parts together and slip them over the guns later. This would be easier and allow a better seam cleanup. Extremely pleased with the results!

This is such an awesome review (as always), Larry! The tips are pure gold! Thanks for sharing.

Excellent mask!

Outstanding fit, sharp edges, very good price, if you consider the free shipping promotion, it really works very well!!

Thanks for the awesome review! We really appreciate your positive feedback on fit, quality, and price!

Great Product!

It was a pleasure to use this mask: It can be easily applied and the fit is absolutely great.

Thanks, Michael! We love to hear glowing reviews about the fit of our masks!

Great Fit!

This Product arrived in good condition and the fit was really great!

Thanks for the great feedback, Michael!

A perfect fit

The really cool thing about this set it the mask comes with the same options the kit has. So you have 2 canopy masking options. Everything for perfectly with very little effort. Great job kit masx!!

Thanks for the great feedback, Marty! We try to provide masks for all the clear parts in the kits we trace. Glad to hear it worked out for you!

Easy. Simply Easy

The mask was very easy to peel and apply, then adjust as necessary. Best mask I've used so far.

Wow, this is awesome feedback, Edward! Thank you!
