Default RE: Solartex Questions??

I fly with only one person that cleans the snot after each flight. We aren't speaking about the end of the day. I can't even pick up one of my glow planes at the end of the day unless the snot is cleaned off. The weave will pick up dirt and oil unless sealed, just the nature of the beast. I don't bother sealing if it's a gas powered plane. When it gets nasty looking I just clean with acetone. No, Acetone doesn't remove the color, ST is some pretty tough stuff. I like it for a lot of reasons, one is it doesn't flash in the sun like plastic so I can see the plane better. I'm thinking next time I build a stunt plane I should use Tex. Really good stuff.
