sticking monokote to monokote
somewhere i was reading a thread about using monokote on top of monokote and the best way to do it. anyhow here is a pic of my little test. this is an after pic of using xylene. the yellow was dipped in xylene and laid on the red and then i wiped it down and let it dry. seems to work well. i did get the same results with acetone but it evaporates too fast and is a bit more flammable.

RE: sticking monokote to monokote
I know Windex works to stick Monocoat and will not work with Ultracoat. Is there a liquid/solvent that will work with Ultracoat the same way Windex works with Monocoat. I like using Ultracoat and am tired of buying Monocoat for graphics.

No windex here. Just an iron with a sock on it.

RE: sticking monokote to monokote
I have never tried Windex I have always just ironed any trim or graphics right on the ultracote. I use monocote solvent or a generic brand to clean fuel residue from any of the film coverings as it cleans it best for ironing on repairs that will not lift. Small holes the solvent allows field repairs without having an iron and you can always iron it later. Here is a picture of my Pitts covered with ultracote and everything is just ironed in place.
