RE: Best way for aluminum/metallic type covering?
One thing to consider before you cover your plane is the visibility of it. Chrome colors have a tendency to disappear when airborne. They reflect the color of the sky and become extremely difficult to see. Trust me here. We had a guy come to the field with a plane covering in chrome monokote. It looked really cool on the ground, but the minute he took off it was next to impossible to see. With the help of 4 sets of eyes he got it back down, and took it home that night and striped the covering off of it!!
