Hi, I am trying to preserve some delicate model aircraft kits my father assembled and my idea is to encapsulate them in a clear setting material that will not damage them in the process. Can anyone help guide me ?

It depends on the plastics and the finishing paints/decals.  Most plastics would be fine with our Waterclear Polyurethane Casting Resin however you would need to test it on the paints/decals to ensure the finish isn't ruined.
