| Special Instructions#3 SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS #3 One of the better features of this model is the Oberusal rotary engine replica,seeing as we are very close now to fitting this heavy unit to the model now,I thought that it would be a good time to add a few embellishments,firstly make sure that all spark plug leads are firmly in place and that the rocker arms and the pushrods are secure,medium cyno is idea to attach these fittings,finally to pull everything together spray the entire engine with a clear lacquer,the sort available from car accessory shops,this certainly brings out all of the detail and will protect the metal from corrosion in the future.The manifolds are copper Humbrol which has had the clear lacquer treatment,the spark plug insulators are painted white.
