I did my first Stits lite project back in early 2000's. Loved it. Got back into hobby again last year and decided was time to practice with Stits again. Just finished up my Robinhood 99 with Stits Lite, pinked tapes, stitches and Polytone paint system. I like it a lot. More time consuming it seems but the finish is great. It is an easy system to use. I did have a few items to rework in adhering fabric using polytak as well as a few pinked taped edges I had to reseal. I was on same mission you mentioned, use it for a good "practice" project. I plan on using it most likely on my Nosen Citabria. Not sure of paints you plan on using. The Polytones spray really nice. System may be a little pricey though on a 40 size. Then again, I have not tried Solartex as of yet. I hear it is the rage.
