The masks as supplied were very good and very effective. It may be difficult but it would be helpful if the outline of the mask were printed on the sheet itself, as the outline is not immediately apparent. Once sorted out the individual mask pieces were sufficiently "sticky" so as not to cause bleeding and were a great time saver.
Thanks so much, John - we really appreciate the thoughtful feedback. We're so glad the masks performed well and saved you time. To make the cut lines easier to see, try tilting the sheet under strong side-lighting and using magnification - the light usually catches the cuts and makes them stand out. You can also carefully lift and remove the outer waste area so the masks show more clearly against the backing but that takes patience and some careful maneuvering.
Incredible products and customer service. This is the third mask set I have used from Kit Mask and each one has been great and really makes the model.
I have recently returned to building models after 36 years of service and am really enjoying the hobby. I tried watching videos on how to properly mask canopies and then heard about Kit Mask while listening to the Plastic Model Mojo. The kit mask are easy to apply and work extremely well. I just applied my most recent mask set for the P-40B and will upload a photo once the model is complete.
Also, the customer service from Kevin and Janelle is incredible. They are responsive and answer all of my questions to ensure I order the right products the first time.
Thank you for the products and service!
Thank you so much, John! We’re honored that our masks have helped ease you back into the hobby (and thank you for your service ️). It means a lot to know that we’ve played a small role in your return to modeling, and we’re thrilled that the P-40B set worked so well for you. We can’t wait to see the photos when your build is complete - you can post them to the Kit Masx Builders Hub on Facebook! And thank you as well for mentioning Plastic Model Mojo - Mike & Dave have introduced us to so many great modelers like yourself.
I recently took up modeling after several decades, in the meantime things have changed, a lot! But some things remain the same, one of them is the difficulty of painting canopy frames. After trying to make my own masks, a waste of time, I decided to buy some. The results were wonderful and while I still have a way to go I can't commend kit más too highly. The quality in tamiya tape is excellent as is the shape of the masks themselves. Only good words, now I have to experiment with a masking medium for the windshield better than mmask. But that's another story
Thanks for the amazing review, Ariel! We're so glad you found us and that we were able to make your masking experience a little less painful.
