In order to benefit from the tensile strength of Monokote you need to shrink it tight on the structure. I have yet to see a delicate stringer model structure that can withstand this without crumbling into bits.
That’s why the lighter and thinner options are now available, but the original topic referred to ‘Monokote’.
I just don’t want the unknowing to ruin a model they built.
