Re: Need help with detail master hose clamps
Its nice to have a nice selection of Aluminum tubes so that you can prewrap them on a slightly smaller diameter (no glue involved) before applying to actual kit part. Then they fit nice and snug and need just a small dap of CA to hold.

Re: Need help with detail master hose clamps
DM hose clamps are straight photoetched strips? I find that BMF matte aluminum looks just as good, and is somewhat easier to work with (not to mention much cheaper). Got any pics of what you're doing?

Re: Need help with detail master hose clamps
I just buy aluminum tape (adheasive backing) and just cut very thin precise strips and just stick them on. Looks great too and more affordable.

Re: Need help with detail master hose clamps
This works for me, I lay some regular masking tape on a piece of glass, color it with a silver Sharpie, let it dry and cut it into thin strips.
