When using solvent-based adhesives be sure to work in a well-ventilated room.
Take waste adhesives and paints to your nearest toxic waste collection point.
An unobstructed work area of generous size is very helpful for all types of modelling
activity.
If you are a beginner to modelling and are not sure about any of the more difficult
processes, ask an experienced modeller for advice and help.

The model is very highly pre-fabricated, and is built to an extremely high standard. The kit
includes a GRP cowl. Please check the covering of the major components and run an iron
over any areas of film which have become slack. Iron down all edges, especially at the
control surfaces hinges and where film panels overlap. We recommend that you apply
clear adhesive tape over the faces into which the hinges are to be glued, as damp tends to
get under the film at these points and lift the edges.
