Styrene strip is the raw material every scratch-builder burns through framing, edging, planking, structural detail and quick repairs. These clean white polystyrene strips glue with standard cement, take primer and paint without fuss, and slot straight into conversions, dioramas and terrain.

Why it’s good

• Cuts and shapes with a hobby knife
• Bonds with standard plastic cement
• Ideal for framing, panelling and edging

Keep a spread of sections in the drawer and you’ll always have the right strip to hand.

Reference: AK6505. Pair with styrene rods, sheet and other strip sections for a full scratch-building kit.
