Product Details: Everything You Need to Know

This set includes paint masks for the inner and outer canopies, canopy seals, and main and nose wheels of the 1/48 Republic F-84F Thunderstreak by Monogram, Redux, and Revell. 

ℹ️ Includes optional masks to replicate the sealant applied around the clear parts commonly seen on 1950s-era jets. We recommend checking your build references for accurate color and pattern details.

• Step 1: Apply masks #70, #71, and #72 (and the inner masks if desired). Paint your chosen color for the sealant area and allow it to dry completely.
  
• Step 2: Apply masks #70S, #71S, and #72S directly over the painted sealant color, then continue painting the main airframe as usual.

Why You’ll Love This Set:

• Perfectly sized for a clean, professional finish
• No need to cut or trim — just peel, place, and paint
• Designed to fit the contours of the Monogram canopy frames precisely
• Ideal for both experienced modelers and beginners looking for perfect results
