Assembly and Handling
For gluing metal and resin parts, it is recommended to use cyanoacrylate glue (also known as Super Glue). Metal parts can also be joined together using a soldering iron, which provides a solid and durable connection. Please note that resin parts are particularly susceptible to mechanical damage, therefore they require caution during processing, cutting, and sanding.
Painting Tips
This product is a detailing accessory and does not include paint recommendations for the entire model aircraft. The armament bay elements should be painted according to the color scheme chosen for the specific historical version of the Lockheed P-38J model. Typically, aircraft armament bay interiors were covered with specific shades, such as Yellow Zinc Chromate or Green Zinc Chromate, depending on the period and manufacturer's specifications.
