Hobbyists who customise and repair RC models will find the Tamiya 70128 transparent plastic plate useful. The clear styrene measures 36.4cm by 25.7cm with a thickness of 1.7mm, making it suitable for small custom panels, windows or template work on kits and scratchbuilt projects.

Practical workshop tips for styrene

• Cutting: Score several times with a sharp hobby knife and snap for straight edges; this reduces the risk of cracking.
• Bonding: Styrene cement provides the cleanest joins for clear panels, avoiding cloudy glue lines when applied correctly.
• Finishing: File and fine-sand edges, then polish with plastic cleaner to restore transparency after trimming.
