What does the set include? Eduard 35790 consists of a single photo-etched plate that allows you to recreate a historically authentic zimmerit texture, the anti-magnetic coating applied to German armored vehicles during World War II. The plates are made of high-grade stainless steel, which guarantees exceptional detail and durability of the final result.

The significance of zimmerit: During World War II, the Germans introduced zimmerit coatings to protect tanks from magnetic anti-tank mines. Tiger (P) and Ferdinand tanks were equipped with this protective layer during frontline operations, including on the Eastern Front and in areas of France and Italy.

Why choose Eduard 35790? We recommend this plate to demanding modelers aiming to achieve a master level of detailing. The accessory perfectly replicates the characteristic, irregular zimmerit pattern, which is unattainable with traditional putty application. Thanks to the thin and precise plate, the model achieves an effect faithful to the look of real WWII vehicles.

Assembly difficulty level: 4/5. Assembly requires experience with photo-etched parts, precision, and patience.

We recommend this product to all advanced historical modeling enthusiasts, especially fans of German armor from the Second World War wishing to endow their models with authentic character and exceptional realism.
