We
have two designs of inserts. The Original
and the new Redlines.
Both inserts are made from polyester foam, a standard in the packaging
industry. The chemical make up of polyester does not contain any
acid that could be harmful to finishes. In fact acid is what decomposes
the foam. The glue used to bond the two pieces of foam is hot glue
melt. Do not put customized cars in any foam product for a minimum
of 90 days. Paint needs to gas out.
Our
inserts are die cut to fit a variety of popular cars in the 1/64
and 1/50 scale car sizes. The cavities change in size both width
and height. Each insert will hold twelve cars. Nine inserts (3 layers)
will fit within one Hot Case; this totals 108 cars in one Hot Case.

Our
Original
Insert fits a variety of cars, for example the largest cavity (first
column, third row) will fit a Dairy Delivery or VW Drag Bus. The
cavities range in size increasing in size from top to bottom and
right to left.
On our New Redlines
Insert we eliminated the larger row of cavities and replaced it
with a second row of thin cavity to better the fit for a majority
of redlines. We also added an arch in the middle to better hold
the cars without pinching the axles.

Redlines
Insert arch helps two ways, A: The foam pinches the chassy not
the axles. B: When removing the car from the cavity the wheels
will not have pressure on them causing the wheels to pop off.
