Another Kit Masx Triumph!
Once again, masks for a classic kit that has been sitting on the shelf for too long. These folks produce quality masks for kits that need building! Always impressed with the quality, have used two of their other sets, and they are great. If you have some of the great kits from the past sitting on the shelf, give their catalogue a look. You'll be building them soon. Good stuff and great people to work with, they have done three custom sets for me!!! Bravo. Happy to write as good a review as I can. Thanks!
Finally - A Neglected Fortress Gets the Attention it Deserves!
I was so happy to see that this item was finally addressed by a company & that it was Kit Masx! While I haven't yet used this item, from my previous experience with Kit Masx products, I believe that it will serve me very well in building my Pacific theater B-17E!

A fantastic product for a long neglected subject!
I was so happy to learn that Kit Masx produced a mask for the venerable old 1/72 Airfix Devastator & with it coming up in my most recent assembly-line project I couldn't help but seek one out for my planned construction of this kit.
During the project I set about fitting this mask to the canopy & found that it fit the canopy frames perfectly. I saw very little seepage of paint getting underneath the vinyl it was produced from as well which is more than I can say about some brands out there. As such I consider this to have been an invaluable contributor to my project; I will be doing a lot more business with Kit Masx in the future!
Relatively proghibitive postal costs being what they are aside, I'm glad I've found the Kit Masx team. I can see myself using their excellent little masks more and more often - especially for the glasshouse canopy styled kits. They take the sting out of getting a great finish on the model and also save my ageing eyes from unneccessry strain, for which I'm grateful.
Cheers,
Mal
I too have just returned to building model aircraft after 58 years. For me mask are a must and I'm glade I found Kit Mask on-line. Their website and customer service are very good indeed. What I really like the fact that they offer many of the mask kits I can't find anywhere else. They even have an option for producing mask kits that are not on their list. What really makes me confident in about the products Kit Mask offers are reviews and accompanying photos showing the results of their use. I will update when I complete my 1/48 scale Academy B-17 D. Happy Modeling!
I am a first time customer and very pleased with their prompt customer service response and delivery. Their costs are very reasonable, even shipping cost to the USA. I have not used the Monogram Vought Kingfisher OS2U, OS2U-2, OS2U-3 1/48 Canopy & Wheel Paint Masks, Kit # 5488 I purchased yet, but the quality of the material and the die cuts are excellent in my opinion They also have a program/option of producing canopies for models you can't find masks for. Check it out on their website. I will be taking advantage of this option in the very near future.
This 1/48 mask set is for national insignia the U.S. used for a short period during 1943 with a red outline. The masks are laser cut on Tamiya paper and include transfer tape which is used to get the mask onto the model. Once on the model I removed the star and bars areas to paint white, replaced those masks, and painted the blue. Lastly, with the white and blue covered, I removed the outline area and painted the red. As you can see from the pictures it came out perfectly! Great product and great customer service! Thanks!

Monogram B-52D canopy masks
This is a great masking kit! Especially for the rear gunner’s canopy. There are a lot of small curved windows there. This was my first experience with Kit Masx, and it was a great one. Whatever you decide to buy, know that it will be great!
In Canada it's winter time but here in Uruguay it's the middle of
summer, the summer is a good time for model building as paints dry a lot faster. The mask set fits the Tamiya kit perfectly and is easy to apply. So one more point for Kit Masx, the quality is excellent and the mask are simple to apply
