''..Doesn’t adhere well to monokote ''
I don't know of anything that does. I have used monokote for ''masking'' where I didn't want anything to stick.

Hello all readers,
I find this post by LestUyeda very interesting.
I endorse fully his comments.
Monokote and similar products are made of some transparent plastic. The color is in the glue or between the plastic and the glue.
Glues do not adhere well to plastic. As a result the heat shrinking plastic covering is not the best for adding strength to a model structure.
We often see someone removing the covering and a lot of the glue and color remains on the wood structure. Materials separate at the weakest layer or joint.
It is a matter of choice highly inluenced by the industry and their advertising.
Nothing beats fabric and real aircraft dope properly applied.
