I had no choice but to go shopping for Tamiya masking tapes after seeing other modelers using it.

So I went shopping for some on the Internet… with some little extras…

  • Tamiya Masking Tape 6 mm
  • Tamiya Masking Tape 10mm
  • Tamiya Masking Tape Refill 18mm
  • Tamiya Extra Thin Model Cement
  • Testors Clear Parts Cement
