Zimmerit Plastic Sheet--A4 Size
Trumpeter Master Tools Zimmerit Plastic Sheet is a grey HIPS sheet in A4 size (210 × 300 mm) with a moulded Zimmerit texture. According to the maker, it is intended for some 1/35 tanks; the pack contains one sheet.
Zimmerit was an anti-magnetic coating used by the Germans during the Second World War on tanks, tank destroyers and other armoured vehicles to make it harder to attach magnetic mines. Its distinctive surface texture is a typical feature of many German armoured vehicles from 1943–1944.
The Zimmerit Plastic Sheet from Trumpeter's Master Tools range is made of high-impact polystyrene (HIPS) and comes in A4 size, given by the maker as 210 × 300 mm. The Zimmerit texture is moulded directly into the grey material. Trumpeter states that the sheet suits some 1/35 tank models, making it of interest to modellers who want to add Zimmerit to kits of German armour from the period when it was used.
