If you follow the link in the original post you will see that he is not talking about using rolled Monokote, but the small trim sheets. These are two different types of covering. I know because I just bought some to repair the wing on my plane. The stuff he is talking about is more like a sticker (self adhesive) than the iron on Monokote (requires heat or some form of activator like Windex). As a matter of fact if you look at the instructions it tells you not to use heat. The way I installed mine was to cut to shape, peel back some of the backing material exposing the adhesive. I placed the edge down where I wanted it, and slowly peeled away the remainder of the backing working out wrinkles and bubbles as I went. It wasn't perfect, but for my application it worked well enough. I do however think I am going to use the nail polish tip post above to ensure it doesn't come loose.

Hope this helps.
