Scale Model of the 1979 Lotus Type 79

The Tamiya 20061 kit reproduces the 1979 Lotus Type 79 with period styling and attention to racing detail. Known for its aerodynamics and raced by drivers including Mario Andretti and Carlos Reutemann, this 1/20 scale kit is aimed at enthusiasts who enjoy historically faithful models.

What adhesives are best for this plastic kit?

Plastic cement is ideal for polystyrene parts for strong bonds, while cyanoacrylate is useful for small detail parts. Use sparingly and clamp parts where possible for a clean join.

Any tips for painting the narrow Martini stripes?

Mask the white base carefully, use fine masking tape, and apply multiple thin coats of the coloured stripes. Consider using a magnifier and a steady hand for crisp edges.

How do I avoid paint and decal problems on thin plastic parts?

Prime the surfaces with a compatible primer, allow full drying between coats, and apply decals over a gloss coat to reduce silvering. Handle thin parts gently and use supports while painting.
