Deluxe Materials Masking Magic Opaque 40g

The Deluxe Materials Masking Magic Opaque (BD84) is a liquid masking fluid designed for high-precision paint masking in scale modelling, especially where fine detail or complex shapes make masking tape impractical.

It is the “high-visibility” version of the Masking Magic range, meaning it applies in an opaque colour so you can clearly see exactly where it has been placed during application.

About Masking Magic Opaque

Masking Magic Opaque is brushed onto areas you want to protect from paint. Once dry, it forms a thin, flexible, paint-resistant film that can be painted over and later peeled away cleanly to reveal sharp edges underneath.

It is especially useful for:

• aircraft camouflage masking

• canopy and cockpit framing

• vehicle windows and trim

• intricate or curved surfaces

Features

✔ Opaque formulation for high visibility during application
✔ Dries to a thin, flexible masking film
✔ Can be cut for very sharp edges
✔ Works with acrylic and enamel paints
✔ Easily peeled away after painting
✔ Water-cleanup while still wet
✔ Ideal for complex shapes and fine detail areas
