Monokote is really hard stuff to do right though...even when one knows how to do it right. Its hard for me, although I dont pertain to be an expert at it either though.

...... ive never seen, in my limited time out in the rc world, where it did not come off from the fuel residue. ......
If Monokote is applied properly fuel residue won't cause it to lift. It's all in how it's put on. I have planes coverend in monokote that have over 400 flights on them and they still look as good as the day I did the maiden flight. Any covering will come of if not applied properly, and this is especially true for paint. Really, it all just boils down to doing it right no matter what covering is used. That usually just comes from experience.
