How to use

Follow the included assembly instructions to identify parts and steps. Test-fit components before applying adhesive if glue is required. Clean parts of any molding remnants, sand contact points lightly for a better fit, and apply primer before painting to achieve uniform color. Use recommended modelling paints and adhesives suitable for plastic kits and allow adequate drying time between steps. After assembly and painting, attach any decals and varnish the model to protect the finish.

Usage recommendations

Use standard hobby tools—sprue cutters, hobby knife, files, fine sandpaper—and model-specific adhesives and paints. Work in a well-ventilated area and follow safety instructions on paints and glues. For detailed finishes, consider fine brushes or an airbrush and reference photos of the Fiat G.55 Centauro for authentic markings and weathering techniques.
