This is the making guide of MFH 1/12scale Fulldetail Kit.




Temporarily attach parts to spare metal rods. This will create a makeshift handle for easier painting.


Apply surfacer onto parts. For large scale kits, an airbursh with a large nozzle head/cup along with a high pressure compressor is most efficient.




Allow parts to dry in a dust free environment. After paint has dried, use sandpaper to remove any residual/imperfections left on the parts.


For bright body colours such as red or yellow, spray an underlayer of white on top of surfacer layer before proceeding to apply the main body colour. For the current kit the body colour is blue grey so it will be applied directly onto the surfacer layer.


Different countries will offer different brands of surfacers/paints so we recommend using what is easiest for you to acquire in your respective country. Our company uses a surfacer that comes in a small jar and mixes it with some thinner to thin it out. For any sort of patching work (filling in gaps, damage repair to parts etc), can spray surfacer is used instead.
