In the last two years out of the last 25+ years of using Monokote I have been very disappointed in the appearance of Monokote after it's applied to a fully sheeted wing surface. What I have experience has been experienced by others and illustrated in the the following link (http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_3966929/tm.htm). In 2005 I contacted Bill Baxter and was less than satisfied in the response he gave as to how to resolve the symptoms I was experiencing illustrated in the photo posted by rcprecision and others in the referenced thread.

The long and short of this inquiry is that I am ready to purchase covering to complete my latest pattern plane project. I am very apprehensive about choosing Monokote for this project. I would like to be reassured that the issue outlined in the attached thread has been addressed and resolved.

If this has been resolved please indicate how do I identify rolls at the local retailer that do not exhibit the traits I have experienced.

Please feel free to contact me if additional details about my experience with recent Monokote is needed.
