I'd bet the colors are slightly different. Oracover and Ultracoat are the same product. That would probably get the best match.

I can assure you it will NOT match. Did the same thing myself as I had some Cub Yellow Monokote Trim Sheet. Not sure if the mismatch is more the color or that the Monokote appears to have more surface gloss.

Anyhow, I can't tell the difference when it is flying!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My experience....
