Sealing Monokote edges
HI folks, Well I'm not new to the hobby, been at it for more years than I care to mention. In the past I have built several kits and covered them with monokote, usualy the wing and painted the fuse. I always had a pretty basic covering, no fancy stuff, and thought out my edges so they didn't run against the wind.
Well I recently built a Exceleron 50 and I'm building a 90 as well. Both of them have several different colors and layers of Monokote and Gold stars on the nose. As you can imagine the stars and other edges come to points and they have begun to lift. I have ironed them back down several times but eventually they come back up.
I'd like to hear you ideas on permanently fixing the problem. I have considerd possibly some clear nail polish, or clear lacquer applied with a fine tip brush on these critical edges. I'm concerned about the finished result though, I don't want it to be obvious that something has been painted on, if possible.
Thanks to all.
