Default RE: New Funtana 125

Hi guys,
As ahicks stated, the only reason the yellowing stands out is because there are areas where that particular covering is right next to plain old white ultracote.
The printed graphics are printed on a thin clear film that is overlaid on the white ultracote.
A friend of mine in the printing industry checked out my plane before it went back to Horizon. He said it was either this clear film or the adhesive used to stick it over the white ultracote that was turning yellow.
I had a couple of spots on a horzontal stab where the clear film got peeled up. The ultracote underneith was white just like the rest of the plane.
You could clearly see that it was the new process that had turned yellow.
