Thanks for the input. I agree with the fine line, I have tripped across it on more than one occasion when trying to freshen up previous craft. I had hoped that I was missing out on some trick to make the task a bit easier. The reason I posted the question is that the plane smashers delivered a nifty lil red/white suk at my door last week. The graphics package is quite extensive and will cover a large portion of the airframe. After the parts gods smile and the miracle of assembly occurs, I'm thinking that I will fly it naked for the first few sessions and then apply the graphics.
