Нийтлэг асуудлуудыг олж засварлах

• Тохирохгүй хэсгүүд: If parts do not fit together smoothly, check for excess plastic (flash) on the edges and carefully trim or sand it away. Ensure you are using the correct parts for the step.
• Наалддаггүй наалтууд: Ensure the surface is clean and smooth. A gloss coat applied before decals can help adhesion. Use decal setting solutions if necessary to help decals conform to irregular surfaces.

• Эвдэрсэн жижиг хэсгүүд: Small parts can be reattached using a tiny amount of instant cement. For very delicate repairs, consider reinforcing with a small piece of wire if feasible.
