Painting Masks for model Bristol Blenheim (for Airfix) Scale 1:48 DAN Models MS480003

DAN Models MS480003 is a painting mask set for Bristol Blenheim Mk.IF builds in 1/48. Designed for the Airfix kit, it focuses on canopy framing and wheel hub areas where neat paint separation is especially helpful on a multi-panel glazing layout.

As an aftermarket accessory for scale model kits, this set supports cleaner masking work on miniature aircraft replicas. It is intended for 1/48 scale aircraft model kits and helps keep frame lines and hub edges more controlled during painting.

This mask set is made for the Bristol Blenheim Mk.IF and fits the Airfix tooling referenced by the manufacturer. It helps reduce manual tape cutting on the clear parts and keeps the painting stage more consistent across repeated frame sections.

For modelers: apply the canopy masks after checking each clear panel against the frame line, then burnish the edges lightly before paint. For wheel hubs, press the mask from the center outward to keep the circular edge even; remove the masks only after the paint has set.
