Status: offline 		Hi everyone. well I broke down and ordered my cularis . It should be here next week. Does any one have any good ideas how to apply paint so it looks good. I know I painted my easyglider with hobby paint and it looks terrible. i didn't do any prep work either. I was just planning on doing the wing tips maybe the tail. Thanks hannie

Wipe down the area last with some alcohol so its clean. Flim coverings are too slick for paint to flow out nice so it helps to scuff the surface nice and even so the paint builds up like it should.
