Default RE: Monokote....Never Again

You know Mike all I did was post what Idid to get a better covering job and you seemed to be offended by my extra effort to get a good covering job. If you don't like monokote then don't use it. I admit after a 10 year period away from the hobby I hadn't noticed it's not called "Super Monokote" anymore. This is the third plane I have built in the year and a half since I have been back. The first plane did have a smallwrinkle problem. I figured it was my fault for being in a hurry to get a flying plane. The second plane turned out much better because I spent a little more time making sure it was dust free.

On the third and last plane I made a real effort to make sure I had a clean, smooth airframe to cover. Plus I made sure that Iwasn't relying on the shrinkage to correct formy not getting it semi tight to start with.Sorry if spending a little time to make sure you are covering a clean piece of wood is offensive to you. But that iswhat I will do in the future.

I came here to post something positive for theOP in the hopes that he might read what I wroteand see if maybe part of his problem with MK mightbe his own doing. That was all.
