I'm an old glass cloth/epoxy paint builder. I started using that for the very reason mentioned at the start of this thread. I couldn't stand putting in all that work on a warbird kit, doing the wrinkle-free monokote job, hanging it up over the Winter and then coming back in the Spring to find a prune where I had left my warbird. My wife wanted to build a plane, so recently I let her put together an old Goldberg Anniversary Cub kit. She did an exceptional job on the airframe! As an experiment, I decided to try Solartex for the first time. I don't have a lot of experience with other shrinkable fabrics, but that stuff is FANTASTIC! Not a wrinkle in sight around the wing tips and looks great. Did the whole thing with an iron. I also thought that since I was experimenting, I'd have a go at painting with latex paint. It's a lot different from the epoxies, but I got a very acceptable finish with very little added weight. No priming/sanding necessary, just spray it on and watch it dry. I paint with disposable Preval sprayers and I thinned the latex with water. One ounce of paint and 3/4 ounce of water. Tends to run a lot easier than epoxies, but if you're careful and spray a number of light coats, no issues. Cleans up with soap and water and if you run some water through the sprayer when you're done, you can re-use it! Great way to do open-bay wings and other areas that you can't glass. Give it a try, you'll like it! Dave
