Its purpose was to prevent magnetic explosive charges from adhering. The Tiger I Late Production, manufactured in 1944, was often fitted with such a layer, especially on the Eastern Front and during battles in Normandy and Italy.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    The Tamiya 12653 set allows you to achieve a realistic Zimmerit effect easily, without tedious sculpting of the model’s surface. The sheet is made from high-quality, thin self-adhesive film, precisely laser-cut to perfectly replicate the pattern and texture of the original coating. Thanks to this, the modeler can quickly and cleanly apply Zimmerit segments to selected areas of the tank, maintaining full consistency with historical documentation and the vehicle's authentic look.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eScale: 1\/35\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eIntended for: Tiger I Late Production (Germany, World War II, 1944-1945)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMaterial: thin self-adhesive film\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eContents: set of pre-cut Zimmerit sheets matching the hull, turret, and other model components\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCategory: modeling accessory for plastic scale models\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    Tamiya 12653 Zimmerit Coating Sheet is an excellent choice both for experienced and intermediate modelers who wish to enhance the realism of their models without time-consuming and risky attempts at manually applying Zimmerit.
