{"product_id":"bmf4","title":"Bare Metal Foil 6 x 11 Thin Sheet Matte Aluminum Foil","description":"\u003cp\u003eBare-Metal Foil Matte Aluminum gives modelers a thin, self-adhesive metal covering for detailed finishing work. Available from MegaHobby, it can be cut into small pieces for trim or applied to selected panels where the appearance of real metal supports the subject.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMatte Aluminum for scale-model detail\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMatte Aluminum offers a quieter metallic appearance for selected aircraft panels, vehicle details and other modeled metal surfaces. Model cars, trucks, aircraft and display models all offer opportunities for carefully chosen metal accents. Match the finish to photographs of your subject rather than assuming every metal component should have the same sheen.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: Matte Aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThin metal foil with self-adhesive backing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor detailing clean, compatible model surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-sheet listing; see package for the supplied dimensions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePrepare, apply and refine\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA smooth surface helps the metal finish look consistent. Inspect the area for dust, scratches and rough paint before application. Test adhesion on a discreet area or spare painted piece, particularly when the underlying finish is delicate. Do not assume that an adhesive-backed product is harmless to every paint system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlan manageable sections, position the foil carefully and burnish it gently into the surface detail. Use a sharp modeling blade and controlled pressure when trimming, taking care around the underlying paint. Practice on a spare part before tackling a visible window surround or a larger aircraft panel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFoil is a finishing material rather than a repair for an uneven surface. Take time over preparation, and decide which edges or panel boundaries will provide a natural stopping point before applying each section.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eExplore related products at MegaHobby\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrowse \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/bare-metal-foil\"\u003eBare-Metal Foil\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/bare-metal-foil-sheets\"\u003emetal detailing foil sheets\u003c\/a\u003e.
