PLASTICARD - SHEET MATERIAL
STYRENE PLASTIC SHEET MATERIAL FOR SMALL & LARGE MODELLING APPLICATIONS
One of the most useful of modern model making materials it can do most things that thin plywood can do
and much more.
Cutting easily with a knife on thinner sheets the material can be bent and shaped and also moulded with
heat.
The material can be sanded and filled in much the same way as plywood. Plastic Fillers work well and so
does Car Body Filler. The material does not swell with moisture and so no problem with the joints showing
when the model gets wet.
Painting is easy, filling and finishing should start with a primer coat which will show up any imperfections in
joints and scratches then after rubbing down, move to finishing coats.
Most paints take well to the material, Oil based Model Enamels work well Acrylics both Automotive and
Model are fantastic and even with care Cellulose when sprayed in thin dry coats
Working in Styrene is Easy Quick and Rewarding
