Default Does Monocote have a "direction"

Guess my method of covering is a little different . I first seal all around the edges, pulling it tight & then shrinking it between the ribs & last ironing it to ribs. All the old tissues had a very pronounced grain to them & would sag between ribs if installed with the grain wrong. You won`t have that trouble with a wing with turbulator spars or a "D" tube leading edge. I also use a heat gun to do most of my shrinking , it won`t stick to the ribs
until you use an iron on them.
