I have another question related to ARF covering......
I don't like the covering scheme on one of my ARFs and I am thinking of stripping the covering off the plane and re-do a new color scheme.
May I know if this is commonly done and what is the best method of removing the covering without damaging any parts of the balsa ?

Just start pulling it off, and if it doesn't want to come off just apply some heat with a heat gun and keep pulling. If it is covered in a heatshrink type covering it should come right off.
Now that sticky shelfpaper type covering is a different story. I wouldn't mess with that. Leaves some nasty glue on the wood [:@]
