Default Solartex Questions??
I've been covering airplanes for years in Sig koverall and dope, coverite fabric, ultracote, monokote, etc. I recently found out about solartex, and wanted to give it a shot. I have a few questions though before I buy it.

1. Can it be painted?If so, what paint? Primer? Does it have to be sealed like koverall?
2. Can it be sanded with a light grit sandpaper?
3. How tight does it shrink up?
4. Is it durable? Will it hold up for years of flying?

Thanks Much!

Jason
