Lovely little things,saved me a lot of trouble when adding the very obvious rivets on the funnels ( OK, uptakes, for Naval types) of my model aircraft carrier. Masked a 3/16 gap on the lines ,smoothed on some 1hr epoxy and stuck the beads on between the masking tapes using needle to pick the little blighters up. Removed tape when epoxy firm but not cured. Looked weird ,all green,yellow ,reds until painted grey. Larger sizes were used for nav. lights and strobe anti collision lights on the 1/24th Airfix Harriers (converted to Sea Harriers) . Keep the tips coming Wonwing. Good stuff.
