Default RE: Useing Heat and Windex to apply monokote graphics

heres how I did the PRO BRO on the bottom, this is all done with monokote, I have used these letters on like 3 different planes so I just put down a peice of red covering and trace around them

the 2nd pic show how I made a shadow with some black ultracoat, when useing black for lettering I like to use the ultracoat because you can draw on the back of it and see your lines, you just gotta remember when you drawing letters on the back side of ultracoat, you have to remember to do them backwards so when you turn the covering over the latters will be right
these shadows where stuck on with heat a few days after the monokote letters were stuck down with windex

pic 3 shows the finished bottom of the wing

I havent mention this yet, one of the last things I do is come back where ever i used the windex and seal the edges down with Trim solvent or Acetone.

hope this is helpful to folks.....Gator
