Review Type:

First Look.

Advantages:

Time saving.

Disadvantages:

None noted

Conclusions:

Like all such masks, these are handy to have if you are masking tape challenged, or willing to spend money to save time. The BV 40 could be viewed as a real luxury, but some might find masking the small windows tricky, so I leave readers to judge for themselves.

I am happy to recommend these masks to those who are happy to pay to save time.

FirstLook

 

Brengun is now releasing canopy and wheel masks for its own kits, three of which are looked at here. Each pre-cut and self adhesive Kabuki tape mask comes in Brengun’s familiar cellophane pouch taped to a card header along with some clearly drawn instructions.

The images accompanying this ‘first look’ illustrate all there is to know about them, so I shall comment no further.

Thanks to Brengun for the review sample.
