Default Econokote on foam?

<div id="post_message_19405057">I just finished covering my HZ Super Cub with Econokote and I am very happy with the results. This is my first time covering a plane. The plane looks great, much better than my attempts to paint foam, and I don't have to worry about the paint peeling off if I want to put a bit of tape or a decal on the plane. Even better, I don't get bits of paint on my hand when I carry the plane.

Now I am considering using Econokote on my Parkzone Wildcat. My question is, has anyone else tried using Econokote on a foam plane with panel lines, and can you get the covering to shrink enough to allow the lines to be seen?

Thanks for any help.
