  - Been trying out pasting ads on bus models many years ago and found the solution.

  - You wouldn't see any damages, neither the red livery nor the very tiny words.

   

  How to stick them?

  - Well, its hard for me to say becos there are few steps to be done accurately to complete the whole body ads.
  For me, I use 'Double A' A4 paper and watery transparent glue.

  Press Release From CMNL (Date: 23rd February 2010):

  John Ayrey Diecasts has contacted CMNL to raise awareness of problems with some models of "ukbus 9001" (Scania OmniCity / East London) which results in some flexing of the internal components during transit.

  CMNL wishes to apologise unreservedly to its valued dealers and customers for any disappointment they may feel if they receive any such model that falls short of the usual high standards of detail and presentation. Retail customers and dealers should return any such item in the normally accepted way.

  Despite passing all factory testing prior to dispatch, including passing the "Drop Test", this problem was not anticipated and we can assure all current and future customers that our engineering staff are working on creating a satisfactory modification that will prevent such issue in future Scania OmniCity models from "ukbus 9003" onwards.

  Once again, we apologise for this unfortunate occurrence.

  Its not just 9001 that have a quality problem. My E400H also have some minor quality problems. If creative northcord still doesnt wanna buck up, i would need to think twice before i buy their models. they simply reminds me of Cars workshop. Charging high prices for low quality products. BOOO !
