Default RE: Monocote vs Ultracote vs the rest

What Dan Hudson said. I used to like Monokote a lot. Then, about a year ago, I covered a Venture 60 with it and I have to re-shrink the covering after every flight. Except under the canopy, where I can't get at it. So, on my last build, I used Coverite's 21st Century film. It went on easily, goes on well over itself with the soapsuds technique (on solid surfaces) and looks good. It's a little "softer" than Monokote. So far, it has held up very well. I haven't tried Ultracoat.
