Do these parts replace plastic components?

Some etched pieces are intended to replace or overlay plastic details to provide sharper edges and scale-thin profiles, so you may need to remove or modify certain plastic items during installation.

What glues work best for brass to plastic?

Cyanoacrylate adhesives are commonly used for quick bonds, while two-part epoxies give stronger, gap-filling joins for stressed areas. Use minimal glue to avoid visible residue.

How can I prevent etch parts from bending out of shape?

Handle parts on the edges with tweezers, store frets flat, and bend only against a solid backing. Reinforce long runs of railing by attaching to the hull in short sections.
