Historical Background
As trucking evolved throughout the 20th century, standardized identification and safety markings became crucial for both public and occupational safety. Specialized signage on vehicles carrying flammable or toxic goods signaled emergency responders and other drivers about potential hazards. These plates and signs often adhered to international standards, making them a universal language of transport safety. By adding this photo-etched kit, you recognize the importance of these markings and capture an essential aspect of commercial and industrial trucking in your scale models.

- Carefully detach the etched parts from the brass board using precision cutters or a hobby blade.
- Use tweezers or a bending tool to shape each piece, if necessary, following your model’s contours.
- Secure the signs with cyanoacrylate (CA) glue or epoxy, ensuring a firm hold.
