Karel Pádár uses Tamiya X-22 glossed coat when
painting some of the photo etched parts. It is advisable
to test the effects of the varnish beforehand. Some
varnishes can damage the coloured surface of photo
etched parts.

Karel Pádár made extensive use of Eduard‘s set

The model is nearing completion. Karel Pádár used white paint with gloss coat before to apply the large decal
on the vertical tail. Due to the size of the decal, he stabilized it with diluted dispersion glue and let it set for about
a day. He did not peel off the top film layer from decals.
