1.  Open your kit slowly and take care not to dam-

age any parts of the kit. Remove all parts from 
their plastic protective covers for inspection.  
Before doing any assembly or installation of any 
decals it is very important to re-shrink or re-
tighten the already applied covering. Due to the 
shipping process, heat and humidity changes 
from different climates, the covering may be-
come lose and wrinkle in the sun. If you take the 
time to re-tighten the covering, you will be re-
warded with a long lasting beautifully covered 
model. 

TIGHTENING AND  

RESHRINKING THE  

COVERING  

2.  Using your covering iron with a soft sock, gently 

apply pressure and rub in the covering. If any 
bubbles occur, your iron may be to hot.  Reduce 
heat and work slowly. 

3.  If bubbles persist, use a small pin to punch holes 

in the bubble to relieve trapped air and reheat. 

4.  Use your heat gun with extreme caution.  Take 

care not to apply too much heat to one area for 
long periods of time.  This may cause the trim 
colors to over shrink and pull away leaving un-
sightly gaps on the color lines.  The trim stripes 
are especially vulnerable to over shrinking. 

5.  Go over all seams and color overlaps with  your    
       sealing iron.
