Default Cutting a staight LE with Monokote !!!

Hi, the snows flying here today so it's time to get the SomeThing
Extra covered. This the third airplane I've covered, one was a biplane
and I can't seem to get a decent cut on the leading edge of the wing.
The method I'm using is to cut the Monokote just past the LE with an
metal ruler between the wing and Monokote after it's shrunk. Sometimes
it works, and sometimes the results are very poor. I'm doing the color
scheme on the box, so the top and bottom are the same color allowing
me to hide a crooked cut.
Does anyone have a better way to get a staight cut on the LE?
