Masking tape - Straight Edged Ruler - Pen or pencil - Drill and Assorted Drill Bits If exposed to direct sunlight and/or heat, wrinkels can appear. Storing the model in a cool place will let the wrinkles disappear. Otherwise, remove wrinkles in covering film with a hair dryer, starting with low temperature. You can fix the corners by using a hot iron. Bei Sonneneinstrahlung und/oder Wärme kann die Folie erschlaffen bzw. Falten entstehen. Verwenden Sie ein Warumluftgebläse (Haartrockner) um evtl. Falten aus der Folie zu bekommen. Die Kanten können Sie mit einem Bügeleisen behandeln. Nicht zuviel Hitze anwenden !

Do not peel the backing paper off all at once. Peel off one corner of the backing and cut off with scissors. Arrange sticker on model and when satisfied adhere the corner without backing. Carefully peel back the rest of the backing while at the same time adhering the rest of the sticker. Try not to make air bubbles, if there are some, carefully puncture sticker (center of bubble) but not model surface with the tip of the knife or sharp pin and squeeze out the air. At curves stretch sticker and apply a little heat so that no ceases occur. Cut off the excess that is produced. TAW-5 TAW-5 T-34C T-34C 24-Balance DO NOT try to fly an out-of-balance model !
