For a Christmas gift, we gave our son this kit. As it's an old tool, I'm sure some folks here have built it in the past. I have a couple questions on it. Since the kit comes with a sheet of Mylar film to represent the insulation blanket, how does it get attached to the plastic parts? Instructions say to "cement" it in place, but I get flashbacks of model gluing fabric to interior seats and creating a lumpy mess! There's got to be a more professional way than tube glue for this. Second question, I'm trying to think of a fine grain material to use as "moon dirt" on the base. We want it to look like powder, but not smooth like paint. I thought of using flour, but I think the bugs would like that too much! Third question, besides the gold foil areas, what colors are the best to represent the metals used on the rest of the lander? Instructions are very vague and the only pictures I can find online of the real one are in black and white. No color film on the moon, I guess. Any advice would be welcomed. -
