Modeler’s Guide for Resin Kits

To achieve a professional, gallery-quality finish on this detailed resin model, please follow these preparation steps:

1. Preparation: Wash all resin parts in warm, soapy water to remove any residual mold release agents. This is a critical step for ensuring that your primer and paint bond correctly to the model.

2. Assembly: Use Cyanoacrylate (Super Glue) or a two-part epoxy for all connections. Standard plastic cement is designed for polystyrene and will not bond with resin materials.

3. Refinement: Use a fine-grit sanding stick or hobby knife to clean up any support marks or casting gates. If any parts (like a sword blade) appear slightly curved, dip them in hot water for a few seconds to gently straighten them.

4. Safety: When sanding or trimming resin, always work in a well-ventilated area and wear a dust mask to avoid inhaling fine particles.

5. Priming: A high-quality surface primer is essential. It provides the necessary "tooth" for your acrylic or oil paints to adhere to the smooth resin surface.
