Monokote is crap
2 Fast, How is it that you prep a model for paint. Is it fiberglassed all over? I know that with practice anyone can get good at using any type of "kote", but I've always wanted to try painting. I would think no matter what the hassles (if it is a hassle) to prep a model for paint it would pay off alot more than getting almost an entire wing with a wrinkless "kote" only to burn a hole right thru at the end.
