Hello, I am having trouble attaching the side skirts onto the zimmerit surface of dragons tiger 1 late. There does not seem to be much of a contact point. Any suggestions?

Kind regards,
Paul

Paul,
Try using a thick (often labeled as Gap Filling)super glue.

On the tiger I there are attachment points for the side skirts not sure if the zimmerit was applied underneath the skirts, I call them track guards. You could if they are plastic drill holes into the attachment points and use a piece of stretched spruce or plastic rods then glue those and the skirts onto the vehicle. If the skirts are PE use brass rods soldered on the the skirts then super glued to the hole in the vehicle.
