Paint wheels and struts as subassemblies, then add any delicate parts late to avoid breakage. If you use washes, apply them after a clear coat so the detail remains crisp rather than stained.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSubject:\u003c\/strong\u003e F-35A Lightning II\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariant \/ Family:\u003c\/strong\u003e F-35A (CTOL) (kit-dependent)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScale:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\/48 (also written as 1:48)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Landing Gear Set\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType of equipment:\u003c\/strong\u003e Aircraft\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended kit:\u003c\/strong\u003e for Meng Model\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eService \/ Subject country:\u003c\/strong\u003e operator-dependent\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Metallic Details\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of manufacture:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ukraine\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Resin, 3D-printed parts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e MDR48246\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis item is part of \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/metallic-details\"\u003eMetallic Details\u003c\/a\u003e and belongs to \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/aftermarket\"\u003eAftermarket\u003c\/a\u003e.
