restoring a 72" 30cc spitfire,
I'm restoring a 72' 30cc spitfire, i'm reglassing the fuse now getting it ready for paint, now I trying to find a iron on film for the wings that can be painted, the wings are covered in this type film now but its all tore up and needs to be replaced they are balsa built up and sheeted wings covered in this paintable covering. if anyone knows where I can get this film or knows of another way to do it with out adding a lot of weight please let me know.

All the plastic coverings can be painted but the areas where the paint is going to be applied need to be scuffed with light sand paper or scotch bright type of pads. If it is a cloth covering or TEX then it can just be painted without anything being needed. There are also camo coverings produced.
