ONLINE HOW-TO:
SPRAY CAN PAINTING
MADE EASY
When you start building models
that have formed plastic and/or
fiberglass parts such as the engine
cowl, wingtips, and wheel pants,
you’ll be faced with the additional
task of painting them to match the
rest of your model. Spray painting
is a convenient and simple way to
finish these formed parts. See how
easy it really is!

for you. Although it helps, scale
details only account for half of
your total score. Follow along as

all-important flight score with easy
step-by-step instructions.
