❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Q: I'm new to miniature painting. Which size should I get?
A: Medium (Duck) is our most popular choice for beginners. It works well for 95% of painters and all common miniature sizes. You can always add other sizes later.
Q: Do I need the magnetic system or are standard corks enough?
A: Standard corks work fine for single models. But if you paint multiple models or do batch painting, the magnetic system saves hours of time and prevents model damage from constant cork removal.
Q: Will the magnets damage my painted models?
A: No! The magnets hold securely but release cleanly. Many painters report fewer dropped models compared to traditional cork methods.
Q: How do I attach the metal discs to my models?
A: Clean the base with isopropyl alcohol, peel the adhesive backing, and press firmly. The adhesive is designed for permanent attachment. Works on plastic, resin, and metal bases.
Q: Can I use these for larger models like vehicles or monsters?
A: Yes! The Large (Goose) handle works excellently with bigger models. For very heavy pieces, you might want to use standard cork method for extra security.
Q: How do I clean paint splatters off the white surface?
A: Warm soapy water and a soft cloth work for most paint. For stubborn acrylic paint, use a plastic scraper or isopropyl alcohol. The surface is designed to be paint-resistant.
