There have been threads for zimmerit applications on this Forum for years. Using the Search the Community feature on the right turned this one up from earlier this year. http://cs.finescale.com/fsm/modeling_subjects/f/3/p/155447/1674610.aspx#1674610

You could keep digging here until you came up with what you are looking for, I'm sure that it has been answered before.

There is also the do your own option. Its cheaper but probably involves a little more work. I use Miliput white, but I am not sure if there's any tutorials on it on here.

I am a Norfolk man and i glory in being so

Cavalier makes resin zimmerit sheets for specific kits. The fit is pretty good, I used it on a 1/48th scale Tamiya King Tiger.

I have a friend who is looking for a way to put zimmeritt on his German tanks.  He has some P.E. sets for the stuff butt the detail is ib=nly superficial at best and probably will disappear with a coat of paint.  Is there a article or tutorial  that would help him?  He asked me but I mostly only build the armor that I drove in the Air Force.
