Default Chrome Ultracote or Monocote

Im not sure Im asking this question in the appropriate place but here goes anyway.

I would like to know if anyone has had any radio signal interference from covering a plane with the Chrome Ultracote or monocote. Does the chrome colored covering have any actual metal fibers or anything that could cause interference with the Tx signal? I ran the antenna wire in a nyrod tube through the fuse on the inside. Havent flown the plane yet. Someone asked if I was worried about using the chrome covering. I wasnt worried till they asked me that. I hadnt given it a thought but now Im worried.

Has anyone got some experience in this matter?

Thanks,
Chuck

cfv007 don't worry abou your antanna Iv'e been doning it for quite a while and as far as chrome monocote is conserned there should not be any problem with your siginal. I have a A-26 invader, STRyan, HP200 and a P-51 all done is chrome and except for the P-51 are all still flying. If you do have any concern then just run the antanna outside of the plane Best of luck to you keep us posted.
