Ok, I am a newbie at this but I did tack down the covering all around, I have specifically mentioned that in the first post. There were a lot of bubbles there- in the wings & fuse and I was able to iron everything down and removed the bubbles using ''high'' setting on the iron. And I did apply heat to the seam but that was because thats where the fold was. Then, two points to consider- one, the orange part is just trimcote, there is no seam there, it was applied on top of the white basecote and second, I did the same thing with the undersurface where there is no trimcote and I wasnt able to get all the folds off there either.

Anyway, this discussion is now becoming academic as Tower wrote back to me asking for my address to ship the replacement wing. Only thing is they indicated they will post it, in which case I fear it will get stuck in customs / suffer mishandling. So I wrote back to them asking them to combine it with my next order wherein I will be ordering similar sized parts and which will come by UPS so it wont get stuck in customs. (I will also be ordering a proper heat gun then)
