its just Liquid mask *packaged* in a convenient dispenser!

The neat thing about this product is the pen is refillable!
and if the tip gets gunked up? you can easily peel it clean.

Honestly, I would use it.... but I have specific needs that require me to dip into the jar and apply
my masking agent with fine tip applicators...

I am sure many users with a large area to mask might find it useful? like Aircraft camouflage contours or other flat surfaces...?



usually for that price... you can get a good quantity if not more in a jar ... but
only you can make that decision!

Happy modeling !

I found out that a substance called PVA liquid mold release could be used as a mask. Thin and is removed by rubbing and just lifting a edge and peeling.
Reasonably cheap $15 for 1litre. It is used in the fibreglass industry. Because it is thin it can be applied by a dop in the middle and a tooth pick to spread it to the edges.
Unfortunately I'm having trouble locating it locally.
Listen and appear wise
