3. Do Airfix models come with paint and glue?
Most Airfix kits do not include any paint or glue. There is a valid reason for the absence of these important materials and that is that most modelers have very different ideas about how they wish to construct and finish their models. There are however a few specialty “Gift” sets which include snap fit kits with basic glues and paints. These are simpler than the standard Airfix kits and are designed to be gifts for beginners to the hobby.
