Default RE: Monokote instead of paint on a car?

not just no, but no way. Paint would be so much lighter if done right, and you won't get monokote to go on fiberglass at all, much less around corners on glass. If you had years of experience with the stuff, you could maybe get it go on with a ton of bubbles under the film, but it would look like heck. It won't go on around the nose very well, especially for a beginner. I can get it to go around corners well, but that is with a lot of using it. Most peoples first exp with it is really bad.

I would shoot a very thin layer of color on it. Save yourself a lot of headaches.
