Grocery Store Accessories : Scale Structure Unpainted Kit HO (1:87) 7201

Scale Structures' unpainted kit in HO (1/87) size

This kit is from Scale Structures, now part of JAKS. This kit is not recommended for beginners, although it can be used to create wonderful scenes with detailed accessories.
The kit contains metal parts (basically white metal). The packaging and instructions are in English only.


The metal is relatively soft, so any warps or bends in the parts can be corrected.
File the glued surfaces smooth so that they fit each other perfectly.
Use instant adhesives to temporarily fix the parts together, and if there are no problems, use a two-part adhesive mixture to assemble the parts firmly.
When the glue has dried sufficiently, wash the surface well with a mild detergent or cleanser to remove any oil.
When the water has dried completely, it is time to paint.
The best way to achieve this is to use a lacquer-based acrylic paint in a basic colour (e.g. brown for wood) and an enamel-based paint for shading and staining, which will give a textured finish without damaging the lacquer-based paint.
