SIG Customaire SIGFF26 Classic Series Building And Flying Instructions

General Notes
The Customaire is a challenging kit designed for experienced modelers. Basic parts must be accurately built in order to produce
a strong, well aligned model. If you haven't already completed a number of rubber powered kits successfully, we suggest that
you set your Customaire aside until you have gained some experience on several of the simpler Sig kits.
Even if you are an experienced builder, please read the instructions before beginning construction. A few minutes spent reading
may prevent serious mistakes. MANY STEPS MUST BE DONE IN ORDER LISTED IF PARTS ARE TO GO TOGETHER
PROPERLY.
Assembling Plastic Parts
Small scissors are the best tool for cutting out plastic parts. While cutting, hold parts so that the trim line can be seen clearly.
Double check with the instructions to BE SURE YOU ARE CUTTING ON THE RIGHT LINE. The edges of the shells and the
back surface of the completed cowling assembly can be finished flat and accurate to the desired line by rubbing them across a
sandpaper block. Go slowly and carefully.
Cement plastic to plastic or to wood with a thin, even coat of Sigment. Other types of cements or solvent may work, but try on
test scraps first. Some cements soften plastic excessively, others will not adhere at all. Plastic joints dry slowly.Waif overnight
Before-handling.
Most of the paints sold for plastic models are OK on these parts. But before using any kind of paint on your Customaire parts,
test it on scrap plastic.
