Brad, as you can see, there are a lot of options to painting a plane. You should ask yourself some questions before you start down this road. What is the fuel source for your Hog Bipe? What are your skills and abilities? What tools do you have, ie. compressor, spray gun, etc. All of these things will infuence your choices of covering and paint. If I wanted a fabric covering but wanted the easiest application, I'd probably go with a pre-colored Solartex. If you use glow fuel, the paint you choose will need to be fuel proof or compatable with a fuel proofer. If you go electric, the paint choices are much easier, like rattle cans from the hardware store. Lots to consider.
