Never used photo-etch zimmerit. I think I like it, but will reserve final judgement untill we see it painted and weathered.

Welcome aboard everybody! 🙂. The zimmerit is on. I think it's the first time in my life I ever used every part in a photo-etch set.

Hunter, I think the photo-etch sets I'm using were made for this kit. So far they fit very well, but not "perfect." For example, I had to enlarge the bolt holes on the zimmerit in a few places to get it to fit to my liking.

The PE zimmerit has some bad press on the internet. I used it on my Sturmtiger and I have to say I liked it.

Glad to hear that H K. 🙂
It went on pretty good, I'm just waiting to see if it looks like zimmerit when it's finished.

Boy, does this thing absorb a lot of paint! It about burned-out my air compressor...
