I'm building a Great Planes PT-60. It's all framed and I'm about to start the covering. I've got Ultracoat as the basic covering and I have some Monokote that I'm going to use for trim. I plan on using trhe Windex method for applying the trim like I read about in one of these forums. I bought some Lustrecoat spray paint that I will use to fuel proof the engine compartment.

My question is do I paint first and then put Ultracote right up to the edge of the painted area or can the ends of the Ultracote overlap some of the painted area? Or, do I do all the covering first and then paint the engine compartment last and paint right up to the Ultracote?

I used to build and fly about 25 years ago but I'm getting started in the hobby again. I've beem out of it so loing I consider myself a beginner and could really use some direction on this.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide. - K01S
