MUNICIPAL BUILDING KIT
If you want to paint parts of the kit, it is advisable to do so before removing the parts from the sprues.
As the number identifications are on the runners in
many instances, do not remove the parts until needed in
the construction sequence.
Use a sharp hobby knife or a pair of side cutters to
remove the parts from the sprue, and smooth the edge of
the part carefully.
Before gluing the parts in place, try assembling them
without glue. If the fit is not right, check that the part has
the right number and that it is right way up. (Glue not
included).
Glue the parts using either a viscous plastic cement or
a plastic solvent applied with a fine paintbrush. Use glue
sparingly, but if you do get glue on a visible surface, wait
until the affected part is entirely dry, then smooth the sur-
face with a file, and finally polish with brass polish- this
should help reduce the damage.
The mortar effect between the bricks can be high-
lighted by flooding the brick parts on a level surface with
a water paint mixture. This is made using water color
from a tube, water and a few drops of liquid detergent.
Once the mixture has the right consistency, it will flow
from a loaded paintbrush along the furrows on the sur-
face. When dry, any paint on the surface can be wiped off.
We hope that you enjoy making this kit - should you
have any problems or comments, please let us know.
